What do you use to send and receive SMS on your computer? I’ve tried KDE Connect but found it too buggy to use daily.

      Most of the time I can’t even send a message with it - I’ll type the message out, click send and… nothing. No indication of error, no indication of success. There’s also an issue with loading the message history right after launch. A lot of times it doesn’t work or only works partially. App on the phone has full permissions, set to unrestricted battery, etc.

        Do you have a crapload of messages stored on your phone? It took a really long time to load my messages the first time, then it was usable

        I had a lot of issues with KDE connect and then I found out it requires some ports to be open. Try opening 1714-1764 with iptables and see if it improves.

        I hate to say it, but I really wish Linux had the Microsoft Phone app. It’s far better in my opinion.
