KDE Connect
KDE conndct, unless a windows update broke file transfers again.
You need a Google account to send files from Android to Windows over Bluetooth now? Bruh.
On my pixel there's a Bluetooth option under the share menu... I'll try it with windows when I can
Check out LocalSend
You can use pairdrop.net to transfer files between any 2 devices on the same wifi/lan.
We need a gmail account to share via bluetooth now ??
- in order to use the "share nearby" feature between a phone and a PC, yes, as far as I can tell
  
  edit: I should probably mention my phone is still googled.
  
  "share nearby" is not simple bluetooth. You can still send files through bluetooth without having to login to any provider.
  
  I generally use usb to transfer data , its faster i believe !
Localsend if you want to just send files

Kde Connect if you want to deeply connect phone with pc
I use session, since it works anywhere without an account
- the chat app?
  
  i think syncthing is actually going to be a better solution for what i want to achieve (keep local music files on my phone on my PC too), but it's good to know these things.
  
  Sync thing is great. I use session more as copy and paste buffer
- What's "session"? Sorry lol
