How to transfer photos from iphone to linux computer while preserving date and time
So I want to transfer some photos from my iPhone to my computer. I found an online tool called qrcp (https://github.com/claudiodangelis/qrcp). Downloaded it and ran it on my computer (Linux user). Then, I accessed it from my iPhone and uploaded a few files to test it out.

Connecting to Virtual Printer server on local network

How do you guys share files between Android & Linux ?

YSK : You can share files with others via QR codes. PDFs and such.
If you want to do it from your phone, there are online websites which can do this for a subscription, (there are shortcuts for Siri also, etc) and if you are working from your computer, you can just use qrcp, which is absolutely free and MIT License. Nothing beats open source. Get it from GitHub in a matter of seconds, use this pattern to create a QR code which multiple students can scan, and project it to your whiteboard. Everyone will have the files readily.

CLI to browser P2P fileshare
I'm trying to find very specific software.I need CLI(!!!) tool like Croc to share files using P2P, but it's very inconvenient to ask people to install same software as me(Croc in this case). Instead i want to get direct download URL, so anyone can download it just by using browser.
