Just tried it, pretty slow (6.4 MB/s) maybe due to encryption (as mentioned in the github repo) but anyway it doesn't utilize WiFi direct, works almost the same as every other app out there (both devices must be connected to the same network)

Just checked the github repo and I'm honestly disappointed seems like the devs ain't interested in supporting WiFi Direct, they can't see what sets it apart, well you know what they say if you want something then do it yourself

Tried ftp servers before, too slow

Currently using the latter

I keep having issues with it

I switched to Ubuntu and KDE connect works perfectly with it!

Tried KDE connect, and it works perfectly

Apparently nothing just get a 10 year old laptop and use Linux mint on it🤷‍♂️

I have decided to switch to OpenSUSE which uses KDE by default so let's see and if this old laptop can't handle it then will switch to Lbuntu as LXQt is its main and only variant available unlike mint

Lol blame linux mint, or is it imgur?

TBH I'm just following https://distrochooser.de/ #1 recommendation, I want something that works best for me, not willing to spend any more time in testing new things that might be good, if it is good then I will let the community try them 1st, I will be the last to jump in

Idk but I forgot to mention that now the laptop actually wakes up from sleep after I switched to the OS drivers, those proprietary drivers are really bad, god I shouldn't have switched to them at all.

Thanks for the valuable information! I'm still not sure if I'm gonna get a laptop or build a desktop as an upgrade for the future but one thing is sure is that 1440p is the absolute minimum for me, no way in hell I'm getting anything lower than that

What kind of issues exactly?

I will give it a shot if things don't go well with FDM

I guess it is a matter of personal preference and priorities

I tried it and unfortunately the browser integration is not good enough for me and for dl vs dlp well I don't know what's the difference between the 2 and I'm yet to use any of them

Yep yep but I'm willing to use a separate app or browser extension just for this purpose

It's okay this is life after all.

I love its UI, so damn good, so damn clean, so simple, I was really really hoping that it would be it, I wanted it to be it but it lacks proper browser integration, the experience is not seamless as it should

The perfect download manager for me would be IDM ease of use and and flawless browser integration + JDownloader2 FOSS nature and its advanceded features + Motrix simple and clean UI

IDM looks like Windows 98 era

Yep I agree but at least it looks like a desktop app not a phone app on a big screen, anyway it's okay I will keep using FDM while keeping an eye on XDM hopefully the new version will live up to the expectations
