Vertical Integration. Android is anything but integrated with all other computing devices I use. Neither with my Mac nor with my Windows PC. It's also not playing well with my firetv the only half decent integration is with my Sonos speakers and that's more on the apps I use than android itself. Hell it doesn't even integrate well with my pixel watch...
I tried out KDE once as a cross-platform version of airdrop. It worked but the UI was pretty buggy.
Syncthing is great. I switched from Android to iPhone recently, and I still have Syncthing but I've slowly stopped using it because it just doesn't work as well on iPhone. It doesn't sync automatically in the background, and plus the best feature was how it synced my photos folder and it can't do that on iPhone because of some stupid Apple reason - of course Apple has their own way to do that where you pay them to store it in iCloud so that's probably why.

That said I also use Kde Connect but it's kinda Buggy for me, it loses the connection often.
