I wish I could send a whole folder of files at once with this, mine seems to only work one file at a time.

workaround: zip the folder?

i know it's a little annoying, but it does make it into "one file" ;)

I recently found out that with Termux you can use rsync between Linux and Android devices.

You can also share access to your phones entire filesystem with kde connect, so you can browse you phones storage from dolphin as if ot was connected through usb and copy entire folders to/from you phone.

Unfortunately I think my phone's USB is only good for charging these days, but it's a pixel 6A so it's on the way out anyways. I'll have to take a look at that I didn't see it, thanks!

On the 3 dots menu, theres "configure plugins" (or smthing like that), then you have to enable something like "expose filesystem" (dont know the exact wording because mine is not in english).
