I'm still willing to venture into it...this was one of those times where my storage had run out on my phone and I was wanting to create some new videos and needed to get my pics/videos transferred kinda quickly. Now that it's cleared I can devote more time to the other options.

I will say I do love Linux in that apps can run regardless of the GUI. I still left KDE Connect on there even though now I am running Cinnamon DE.

Agreed. But adb works on Windows and Apple OS too.

Does KDE Connect work without a full KDE desktop?

I removed the main KDE desktop package and then some of the KDE utilities that are included with it (KWrite, etc). I didn't realize KDE Connect was it's own separate package and I just left it. It still works just fine in Cinnamon.
