Phone Link is Microsoft's late and closed source alternative to KDE Connect. It requires you sign in to a Microsoft Account for it to work.

This means all the transactions between your phone and your PC are monitored and sucked up by Microsoft.

Is there a port for M Macs? I'm missing it so much now that I don't have Linux on the laptop.

Weirdly shows not officially supported on github.

Thanks for the other links!

Notable products manufactured by Foxconn include the BlackBerry,[6] iPad,[7] iPhone, iPod,[8] Kindle,[9] all Nintendo gaming systems since the GameCube, Nintendo DS models, Sega models, Nokia devices, Cisco products, Sony devices (including most PlayStation gaming consoles), Google Pixel devices, Xiaomi devices, every successor to Microsoft's Xbox console,[10] and several CPU sockets, including the TR4 CPU socket on some motherboards. As of 2012, Foxconn factories manufactured an estimated 40% of all consumer electronics sold worldwide.[11]

Foxconn is used by A LOT of companies. While I'm always ready to shit on apple for their double standards, let's not pretend they are the only ones. All those in the quote and many more deserve their share of shitting on.

To be clear, I'm not whatabouting, it's more "yes, and let's have the rest accountable too". I know you're not saying they only produce Apple, but this is overlooked too often
