Any extension like Pushbullet? (lemm.ee)

Basically the send to device feature was solid for me but since around build 98 they redid it to be more chrome like sadly so instead of keeping devices linked forever you now have to log into them every couple of weeks. That makes me need something like Pushbullet again to send links to devices that I won’t log into for months on end.

Have you considered running an app on your computer and on your phone (device) instead of an extension?

If so, KDE Connect is a good app for sending files, links and notifications to different devices on LAN. You can even control certain aspects of your computer on your phone.

I didn’t know that existed. I’m guessing it’s Linux and hoping it’s Debian based if so. Will have to find the iOS app of it but appreciate this lead!

Well its cross platform. It works on Windows as well as Linux.

It's integrated in KDE Plasma flavors of Linux. But can be installed on all Linux boxes.
