Hi everyone,
I currently use Telegram to send photos, PDFs and text messages between my Android phone and my Debian laptop. It works, but everything goes through a third-party server, and I would like a fully local, privacy-friendly alternative.
What I need: Send photos, PDFs and other files in both directions (phone ↔ laptop) Send short text messages or clipboard content Works locally
Thanks for any advice and experience!
Whilst I’m not sure if it covers everything, I’ve been playing around with a Nextcloud on my home server which is just visible to devices on my home network (i.e. so my phone has to be connected to WiFi at home to reach it).
Since your laptop is Linux you can easilly run Nextcloud in it as a service.
