Needed to send some stuff from my Linux server to my wife’s Window’s PC the other day, but I was at work and she couldn’t get her PC to see the folders I’m sharing over the network. So I used AnyDesk from my Mac at work, opened LocalSend on the server and sent the files over. 1GB sent over in about 10 seconds. Amazing stuff.
Doesn’t work for me on public WiFi. Tried using device IP, no luck. In my home WiFi it works perfectly though. Haven’t tried Bluetooth, didn’t know that’s possible
For #1 you can try KDE Connect. Send files and clipboards between your devices over wifi or bluetooth.
Sending stuff to another person’s device? 🤷
I’ve heard good things about LocalSend.
LocalSend is great.

Some parts of living in the future are magic.

Many public wifi networks disable peer to peer connections over the network for security purposes, which breaks KDE Connect
