Should be a decent holdover until KDE Connect has better Gnome support.

Why do they simply not implement kde-connect protocol, stripping kcmshell parts?

A point to point USB connection whould be welcome by battery hungry devices too.

Obsolete before it was even dreamed up.

Android bleeps and lights up the screen when a notification arrives. If your phone is on your desk, that means you just need to ROTATE YOUR EYES TOWARD IT to see the notification.

Don't see how it is obsolete. Phones are not always in your desk and you aren't always sitting on your desk when say using a laptop.

Last I heard, better support for Gnome (and windows and Mac) was already either planned or already in progress for kde-connect.
