This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I use LocalSend. It apparently works on Macs too but I've never tried that. Windows/Linux seems to work fine though!
I use LocalSend ALL THE TIME between my Linux machines and my iOS devices. It's faster than AirDrop.
That makes sense. AirDrop rapidly switches the wifi radio between the network the device is connected to and the adhoc network of the sending device. It’s effectively running at half speed with a clever trick.
Airdrops only problem is the proprietary nature of it but it’s a good solution that works very well. In the PC market, they still can’t get Bluetooth right. They never got Miracast right either. Microsoft half-asses everything they try which turns apples cool idea into the only way to do something.
I can say LocalSend from iOS to Fedora works flawlessly.
