not the OP, I'm on Linux + Android and I hate my phone so much. next phone will be a pinephone and a DSLR or mirrorless camera at this rate.

the ONLY thing that's worked for me is syncthing -- I can't copy files over USB reliably at all.

I guess I could also pay for google photos but honestly fuck google so much. I have a pixel 3a so all I get is the unlimited low-res images.

Why the hell this thing can't just backup files over USB or SMB or a card reader/USB drive plugged in to usb-C is beyond me.

I have a Pinephone. Its incredible. We need more users. Buy one! The next generation is on it's way and it's supposed to be pretty awesome.
