Devices: Bazzite Laptop, GrapheneOS Pixel 9, Boox Tab X

I'm annoyed with the functionality of KDEConnect at present. I very much like the concept, but there is friction preventing what should be a convenience from reaching its potential. Right now, I can mount the filesystem of connected devices on my laptop, but every time I do so I have to bypass an access restricted sign and do Ctrl+L to append storage/emulated/0 to the IP address of the connected device to actually access the mounted filesystem. Further, if there is more than one device, the two filesystems are practically indistinguishable from one another: I just spent about 5 minutes digging through the pictures on my tablet before I realized I was browsing the wrong device

1. Is there a way to automatically append storage/emulated/0 every time the device is mounted?

2. Is there a way to rename the filesystems so that I can easily distinguish between my phone and tablet?

Some other problems less directly important to what I would like to incorporate into my workflow:

I occasionally experience strange, unexplained disconnections/refusals to connect with the kdeconnect protocol, despite being connected by wifi, bluetooth, direct usb tether, or any combination thereof. This problem is infrequent and intermittent, and the only consistent solution seems to be restarting the affected device (usually the pixel).

3. Am I missing something about connecting devices; is there a log I can check for some kind of device error?

I'd appreciate some way to stream the screen from one device to another. Nothing major, but it would have been convenient a couple of times now, and it seems like an obvious addition to the capabilities.

4. Is something like that in the works? If not, what is the reason it's not? What would allow me to do this?

On this mander account, in the standard web client. The front page loads as expected. Clicking next generates the next page URL, but posts do not load in; grey boxes where post information should be and an endless wait. Refreshing and reloading does not fix. Changing from all to local/subscribed feed does not fix. Logging out does fix, but then I'm not logged in.

Edit: Bug persists across devices, phone, pc and boox tablet, and both windows and ubuntu. Suggests server/account-specific issue?

I had a similar (identical) problem for a while on a feddit.org account, but it has since resolved to normal expected behavior without any input on my part.

It's annoying.

Please advise.

DAYTON, OH—Every single person, historical figure, and anthropomorphic talking object inhabitting Brian Jensen’s dream Friday night was suddenly struck by the unusually strong smell of smoke, subconscious sources reported.

Jensen, a 32-year-old cable installation technician who had fallen asleep several hours earlier, was reportedly in the middle of a conversation with his former high school biology teacher, Mr. Campbell, at the time of the unexpected disturbance.

“Now Brian, I would love nothing more than to help you mend your relationship with your mother, but I’m afraid…wait, is that smoke?” said the dream version of Campbell, who then he set down his briefcase, took an eggplant out of his jacket pocket, and sniffed at the air suspiciously. “Something’s definitely burning around here.”

Over the next several minutes, Jensen reportedly wandered through the shifting dreamscape, meeting distant cousins, beloved family pets, and automotive pioneer Henry Ford, all of whom appeared visibly concerned with the increasing heat and acridity.

According to dreams sources, the sleeping 32-year-old soon found himself aboard an empty passenger train, where a coughing and gasping German customs officer asked him for his travel documents.

Several times, the man wondered aloud in his thick accent “where all this smoke was coming from,” and while stamping Jensen’s passport, he twice stopped to rub his stinging red eyes.

“Not since the war have I seen smoke like this,” said the German, who sources claimed then slowly melted away to reveal Jensen’s former Pizza Hut coworker Craig Weiss. “Dude, it’s so fucking hot in here. I’m sweating my balls off.”

“Jesus Christ, Brian,” the fast-food employee continued. “Did you let another pizza burn or something?”

This incident aboard the train was followed by a succession of other puzzling events, including the sudden appearance of a dozen exploding thermometers, the arrival of a cigarette-smoking bedside lamp, and what sounded like the muffled echoes of banging and screaming coming from behind a small wooden door.

It was also at this point that a frantic gas stove, running around in circles and crying desperately for someone to put it out, was first seen.

“I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe,” shouted folk hero Davy Crockett. “We need to get rid of some of this smoke.”

A motion to immediately open a window to let in some fresh air was approved by a majority of those voting in the dream, among them a group of injured boy scouts, sports commentator Marv Albert, Smokey the Bear, and a locked bedroom window. A doctor who had taken Jensen’s tonsils out when he was 12 opposed the decision, however, calling instead for immediate evacuation.

Although it’s not clear how Jensen wound up in the kitchen of his late uncle Gary’s home, dream sources revealed that a cheerleader from Jensen’s middle school approached him at that time. Dressed in a short pleated skirt, the cheerleader reportedly leaned in close, parted her perfect red lips, and then blasted the 32-year-old in the face with a blaring fire-truck siren.

“Brian, you’re burning up,” the slender, giggling teenage girl said. “You’re burning up!”

Jensen’s romantic efforts were further interrupted when an old woman carrying a tray of candles entered the kitchen and urged him to “please wake up” so he wouldn’t be late for work. Moments later, a flaming roof beam screamed at Jensen to get out of its way as it fell and crashed to the ground.

“What are you still doing here—-they’re all looking for you,” shouted the roof beam, flanked by several other beams all tumbling to the floor. “Nobody can find you!”

At press time, there was an intense smell of rising smoke and slow-roasting pork.
