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.

KDEconnect or gsconnect if you're on KDE or Gnome respectively.
There's an in-development program for GNOME called Valent. It's been pretty solid for me. It's also not a GNOME shell extension, instead a native app.
Oh, nice. Thank you, I'll take it for a spin.
Went to look into it, and seems to be in very early stages. I'll set up the flatpak on my computer and laptop to help where I can, seems like a very nice option. Do you know how to integrate it to Android? I could not find anything on that.
Edit: So it works from the KDEConnect Android app. Nice.
