I've been using SMB from the Linux side of the things and File Manager+ from the Android side. Both are things I'd already have even without that:

  • SMB - I have it since my mum had that old W7 laptop, so she can store her junk in my computer. (Her laptop had notoriously small disk space). Eventually its usage evolved into my main method to share files at home, specially with the TV box, so I can torrent full anime seasons and watch them from the TV.
  • File Manager Plus - because the Google one is rubbish, and this one has network access. That's it.

I might try some of those out though. Packet in special looks promising.

This is exactly what I do too.

I also like the cloud integration in File Manager Plus and will often use that instead of the respective cloud's official app.
