I gave this a try during the drama with syncthing-fork (new maintainer without a heads up from catfriend1). Had no issues sending from Fedora. GrapheneOS wouldn’t send any files. Too bad.
Check out the firewall settings, it could be the issue. Also don’t forget to turn off VPN on both devices if you’re using one.
That’s why it wouldn’t work for me - I never turn off my vpn. Syncthing works through a vpn so I use that.
I’m not sure that’s needed, but the firewall on your PC is likely to be blocking the connection by default
If you want to send files between just your own devices KDE Connect is great and can do many other things too. If you are on Gnome there is a gnome extension for better integration (gsconnect I think?)
Works for me on graphene
It’s good to know it does work. Thanks.
Have you enabled local network discovery?
I don’t have Local Send installed but if/when I do, I’ll check that. Thanks.
If does need ports to be accessible in order to receive anything. So check the firewall.
