Is there an open source app/website to only send text between android and windows? Like pushbullet but open source with no internet connection with little amount of permissions
Snapdrop is primarily aimed at file sharing, but with "floating text selection" enabled it can share text as well. To use it without an internet connection you would need to self host it.

New open-source Android VNC server droidVNC-NG looking for contributions
The Android VNC server project droidVNC-NG just reached version 1.0.0 and is now looking for contributors to further improve the code and add features. It's a VNC server using contemporary Android 5+ APIs and therefore does not require root access. GPL-2, mostly authored by me and named droidVNC-NG in reverence to the original droidVNC server.
