On Linux KDE connect can mount your phones filesystem as FUSE filesystem and then you can use desktop file explorer like dolphin. It's even integrated and automatically apears as an option. Quite convenient, I would say. Performance is pretty good too.

Any Linux desktop can do that via MTP (Google doesn't allow access as mass storage anymore)

Maybe it's just me but doing a big transfer over cable is a crapshot since it will disconnect midtransfer. KDE connect is a bit better but syncthing is the best solution still.

Doesn't MTP require plugging in a USB cable? KDE Connect works wirelessly as long as your phone and computer are on the same network.

KDE Connect just uses an SFTP file mount. You can do that on any system that you can ssh.

But I wouldn't use that for backups, I'd use rsync.
