Hello, i am looking for a self hosted application for sharing files like with wetransfer. I have tried the discontinued Firefox Send which has nice features like link expiry and works great in general but lacks authentication (only offers simple password protection). I also want the option to share with registered users. Is there anything similar out there? Thanks
I was recently introduced to Croc which is great for point-to-point immediate shares. If you want something async, I wrote Korra some years ago. It might do the job for you.
Croc has worked nicely for me when I had to transfer very large files. I’ll check out Korra next time if “async” means it will start transferring once the first file is hashed. That always annoyed me about Croc and I’d manually break my transfers into chunks because I didn’t want to wait 10min before even one file was transferred.
Not really. It’s async in the sense that you can send a file now, and the server will hold it in an encrypted state until your recipient comes to collect it.
Ah, so it’s not [necessarily] a direct transfer between peers.
