Switched to Linux a little over a year ago and it’s been great, but one thing eludes me. What’s the best way to do the following when you don’t use Windows or MacOS?

  1. Manage music collection - on Windows I used iTunes to sync my mp3’s to the phone. Is there a linux solution?

  2. Manage SMS from desktop - I’d like to be able to read and reply to SMS messages on my iPhone from the linux PC right in front of me instead of this rinky dink iPhone soft keyboard. Is this possible?

And how the hell does anyone but a child type on an iPhone anyway, while we’re at it? (rhetorical) Grrrr.

Thanks!

    1. I run a Jellyfin server and use the FinAmp app to stream music. I know FinAmp will let you store music for offline playback.
