can any stacker recommend me a good file sharing tool? I did some digging this morning but still couldn't find what I wanted. πŸ‘€
Requirements
  • I control the file and free to edit or delete anytime ( Nostr tools are out )
  • no need to download any apps ( Onionshare is out )
  • simple signup, not asking too many info
Apps close to what I want: Wormhole
Wormhole is great, and it's even being able to limit the download times, but the max expire time is only 24 hours - so a more time flexible wormhole would be the one I'm looking for.
Wormhole next year? πŸ˜… Their roadmap includes:
  • πŸ’°Wormhole Pro – Longer expiration time, higher download count, larger files
  • πŸ”’ Optional password protection – Extra security for your files
  • πŸ“Š Download stats – See if/when your files were downloaded
  • πŸ•Έ Peer-to-peer Mode - No cloud, just pure P2P file transfers
  • πŸ“₯ Request files – Link to receive files from anyone
Edit: people in the community are mentioning it’s no longer maintained.
reply
so what is the good alternative atm? πŸ‘€
reply
Maybe something like a redirect url, and switch out the link for a new wormhole upload every 24hrs πŸ˜‚

sometimes I don't understand why such a simple problem but so hard to find a good tool. πŸ˜‚
would be so nice if a file sharing tool that can pay with LN.

If I can find a repo to fork that’s 50% of the way there. I may try and buidl one myself
Serve files from your own server :)
Basically a VPS like from Linode and then install (and configure) Nginx.
It will then look like this: https://files.ekzyis.com/public/
If you want to keep things private, you can use HTTP Basic Auth (but only with HTTPS!)
It will then look like this: https://files.ekzyis.com/
