Mine is kdeconnect which does what local send does plus so much more.

  • using phone to control laptop
  • getting phone notifications send to your pc
  • can browse phone's storage directly from pc
  • find my phone function

I've had issues with it for file sharing, so far that I'm sticking to LocalSend, but I really need to explore KDEConnect further, as I haven't explored the rest of its features.

That application rules but it looks like butt on my workstation.
