minus-squareKevin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up19·1 year agoTermux is awesome! I use it for a bunch of things: sshing into servers and my home when I’m out and about using croc to transfer files making videos I’m going to send people smaller with ffmpeg downloading stuff with yt-dlp giving myself access to the sandbox + /sdcard from other computers by running an ssh server scripting phone stuff (like taking photos) with the api running weechat locally, which I can then connect to with weechat android using vim probably a bunch of other things I’m forgetting
minus-squareouch@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoDoes croc relay pass only metadata about the client addresses, or is the data itself sent via the relay?
minus-squareKevin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoAs far as I know the relay just NAT busts, after that it’s encrypted p2p.
minus-squarenoddy@beehaw.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 year agoUsing termux for SSH as well. Haven’t heard about croc before. Are there advantages over copying files with ssh (scp) for example?
minus-squareKevin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoThe main advantages for me are: You don’t need to swap ssh keys, which makes it great for setting up new systems I haven’t connected to everything else yet (or don’t plan to) It’s cross platform The devices don’t need to be on the same network (it NAT busts too)

minus-squarehottari@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up1arrow-down1·1 year agoWhy install another app when croc is available from termux?
minus-squareKevin@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoThat’s pretty much where I’m at too, and I find it easier to get to the file(s) I want to send through the cli. No judgement to anyone who prefers the gui though!
