In Localsend: Open-Source Airdrop AlternativeFor that particular use case (from Android to other devices on the same network), either of these would work:

In Magic Wormhole: Get things from one computer to another, safelyAsk HN: How do you sync and share data from your smartphone?
I have many use-cases where I sync data like text, messages, photos, contacts or notes from my smartphone to my computer.
- What are your setups / solutions to sync your data to your own PC?
- What are your solution to send it to a friends oc or smartphone?
I am not using google photos or other google cloud services, hence I may have more use cases than others.
What I do:
- Syncthing ( https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing ) for particular folders and photos to my laptop / PC.
- Share via http ( https://github.com/marcosdiez/shareviahttp ) to share files from my smartphone to someone else in the network.
- etesync ( https://github.com/etesync/server ) for private calendars and contacts
I do not have a process for sharing to someone directly through the internet. Firefox send comes to.my mind here?!
