I'm looking to switch from Windows to Linux and I'm curious about the best distros for file sharing. I often download series on my laptop but need a quick way to access those files on my phone. Windows has been a hassle for sharing files. I took a Linux distro quiz and got suggestions like openSUSE, Devuan, Rocky Linux, Zorin OS, and Fedora. Any recommendations for a Linux distro that excels in cross-device file sharing?

Honestly, there isn't a single best distro for file sharing. Most distros can easily handle file sharing with the right software. If you're new to Linux, I'd recommend Mint. It's super user-friendly and feels a lot like Windows. For sharing files across devices, give LocalSend a try. It works on Android and iOS too! Check it out at localsend.org.
I'm looking for something a bit different since I'm tired of the Windows UI. I’m okay with a tougher learning curve!
