I'm truly sick of how difficult it is to copy files between devices in different ecosystems. It makes me grind my teeth that emailing/WhatsApping attachments has become a default for people literally standing next to each other. No, we don't need more proprietary protocols like Apple This or Google That. We've got scp, sftp, Bluetooth, all manner of secure connecting and tunneling methods, all of which can be made easy to use and secure. Apparently, I can't Bluetooth a file from my Android phone to my partner's Apple phone because apparently Bluetooth is insecure and Apple have hobbled it on iPhones. What a crock. Fix the damn protocol or make a new one that's open. It's anti-competitive and user hostile to do otherwise. Yes, there are the various wormhole and filedrop services, and good for them. Unfortunately they sometimes don't work on corporate/academic networks. Ugh. What a mess. Rant over.
