Found it, my guess was right. It has been my default method for years, 
so that is why I did not write it down.

It uses Linux. I connect the phone to the computer via USB cable, then 
tap on the phone to share all files (not just photos). Then on the 
computer I open the phone using Thunar (a file browser for XFCE).

Then I open in a terminal Midnight Commander (mc), and navigate to:

/run/user/1000/gvfs/mtp:host=motorola_moto_g52_redacted/Almacenamiento 
interno compartido

and copy the tree wherever I want.

It runs at about 10..12 MB/s


I assume that you can do the same using KDE/Plasma (Dolphin) but the 
details change.
