   Is there a way to dial an Android smartphone from a Linux computer over Bluetooth? Control over LAN WiFi is also acceptable. :thonking:

     @Polychrome kdeconnect will let you control your Android phone from Linux, Windows and maybe Mac, and from other Android devices. If they're on the same WiFi network. Not sure if they solves your exact problem, but closest I've seen

     @OliverUv KDEConnect lets you receiving call notifications on your PC but I don't think I've ever seen it letting you dial the phone from the PC.
     
     Just checked the menus, didn't see an option or plugin to do so.

     @Polychrome I remember using an app called AirDroid to remotely access the phone's desktop like it was a VM
     it worked, there are other apps, it's definitely possible
