Are there any suggestions for a firewall with an easy GUI? I want to open a port for kde connect so i can use sms and fling my phone to the back of the room. Thanks in advance

I'm a big fan of firewalld with firewall-config. It's fairly easy to use even though it might look a bit complicated.

You find your default zone, usually public, you add your ports or your services, you save the changes to runtime and permanent config and you should be good to go.
