I found a similar question here, but the answers did not solve my problem. KDE connect can not browse my android phone
I know how to use a file server in my home. I am not looking for alternatives. Thank you.
When I run kdeinit5 from command and log errors while starting the browse function of kdeconnect I get the following:
kdeinit5: Shutting down running client.

I just started using kde plasma and I'm not sure if the gnome components are creating the issue. And if so which gnome components are the issue.
