Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

Depending what you want, you can do this very simply:. Create an SMB network share on the PC. It can be password protected or not. Doesn't matter what OS, really (Windows, OSX, Linux). Then, on your Android phone, use an app like Solid Explorer or any other network capable file manager app that you like. Add the share to your file explorer app. After that, you can copy files just like the network share is a USB flash drive or SD card, or any other drive. It is taking advantage of stuff already built into your PC OS.
