I know the following doesn't directly answer the question, and I also
know that it might not be applicable in tight bandwidth
situations. I've been there myself. But anyway:

The easiest way to transfer files to / from Android, for me now, is
Magic Wormhole:

Client software packages are available on most Penguin systems and on
F-Droid:

On FreeBSD, I have successfully (and easily) built the Rust client
from source.
