I’m running OpenSUSE leap 15.5, When I was on the linux mint, I was using warpinator but using it on openSUSE is troublesome and I wish there was a linux version of blip but unfortunately there is not.

    If by wirelessly you mean via Wi-Fi network then one convenient option is qrcp. It generates a QR-code right in your terminal, which you can scan with a phone and send/receive files through a web interface on the URL it provides.

    If you want to transfer files regularly, there is another option. Almost every distro has Python installed, and the Python has a “built-in” FTP server. You need to just cd into desired directory and run the command python -m pyftpdlib -w. It will open a FTP server with root in this directory. You then can access it through a file manager, like Material Files for example, and send files and folders back and forth. In Material Files you can save the server address for future use.

        Yeah, actually it also has a HTTP server, in case you need to transfer something big one way and don’t want to bother with FTP connection
