From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm running OpenSUSE leap 15.5, When I was on the linux mint, I was using warpinator but using it on openSUSE is troublesome and I wish there was a linux version of blip but unfortunately there is not.

X-plore on android can give file access via Web frontend in paid Version.

With that you can drag and drop files if that's what you're looking for.

samba. share a folder on pc, and on your phone use a file manager that can access smb folders in your local network, then just copy or move from or to that folder. bit of a hassle to set up the first time, but makes things more convenient in the long run.

Croc or syncthing depending on what kind of experience you are after. Syncthing if you want to have a shared folder like expert. And croc if you just need to send something. Croc has an app on f-droid, and syncthing is on the app store. Both are open source and pretty for excellent in their own right.

My go to hack was quickly running a python http server and connect to it. I can't remember what the command was exactly. Something like python -m http.server or so, then connect to the ip from my phone, heh.
