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.

KDE connect has a windows version
Yeah, but it absolutely sucks
I've never used it so I guess that's good to know
Sadly, it is only good from Android to Linux (preferably KDE, but Gnome is almost/ just ad great).
I was super hyped when they released the iOS and Windows versions, but both suck, really.
iOS is super restricted (who had thought...) and Windows is super buggy and only works in one direction (Android to Win), with most of the great features missing and always loosing connection
