I just discovered it today and I’m considering setting it up to use instead of LocalSend. Have any of you used TailDrop before? I don’t use TailScale so I’m not really sure I want to set it up just for sending files from my phone to my PC but the share menu options does seem convenient and it would be cool to be able to send any photos etc to my pc when I’m not home and have them their when I arrive sorta like I used pushbullet in the past.

    No. I use Linux Mint which has its own Airdrop alternative called Warpinator. I can send files and photos between my phone and pc wirelessly. It doesn’t do clipboard though, just files and photos but that’s fine for me.

        Yes. I’ve only seen it on Linux Mint but it will be open source so you should find it in other distro repos too.

            Oh yes that’s right. I’m glad they have that but I only use Flatpak if I have no choice because they need so much storage and are slow to load.
