The Shortcut is simple and easy to use (1). If I wanted to do the same thing on Android, I'd use Termux (2).

My 'Universal Clipboard' is a text file on a VPS. My devices set or get the contents via SSH. E.g. Android[Termux SSH] > VPS < iOS[Shortcuts 'Run Script over SSH']. Comes in handy!

KDE Plasma provides a QR Code for anything not too big you copy-pasted by clicking on an icon. "It should be more convenient than using the computer as a Wi-Fi hotspot for the phone, which is a two clicks operation, right?"
Wrong. It was painful.
We should reuse the idea of Quiet.js, seen today on HN [1], to solve this kind of situation.
- Copy from the phone and paste on your computer, or vice versa (this is an optional feature, fortunately).
- Right-click on a link in a browser, or click on the KDE Connect icon -> send to device.
You can also send files between devices with it.
(it works outside the KDE environment too, even outside GNU/Linux apparently, and Gnome has its own implementation)
