sendme

Look into Sendme [0] and AltSendme [1] (which is a GUI around the former), they use Iroh [2] which is an open-source encrypted peer-to-peer relay service to send data so there are no limits whatsoever for sending and receiving files, because there's no central server. From my earlier comment about a similar thread a couple days ago about which file sharing apps people use [3]: [0] https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme [1] https://github.com/tonyantony300/alt-sendme [2] https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh [3] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47906587

Sometimes you don't need a P2P VPN, but rather a P2P stream manager (eg. BitTorrent). A somewhat nice solution for that is Iroh (QUIC P2P w/ hole punching): https://www.iroh.computer They also provide a solution to discoverability: https://www.iroh.computer/docs/concepts/discovery Which boils down to storing ECC signed arbitrary data on the mainline DHT. Two showcase Iroh utilities that are actually useful in practice: https://github.com/n0-computer/dumbpipe https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme

I also like SendMe [0]. I’ve used it to share files between local PC and server sometimes. And also to send large files to friends without cloud links. It’s written in Rust and based on iroh p2p library [1]. [0]: https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme [1]: https://www.iroh.computer/

same team behind dumbpipe makes sendme, which is much closer to this use case! https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme

I wonder what tech stack they're using, given it supports all the major platforms. I like sendme [0] which uses iroh, a peer-to-peer library as well. [0] https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme

Are you familiar with Iroh's sendme? https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme

If you want an actual mesh p2p IP-network that can punch through firewalls/NATs you can use Tailscale/Headscale If you want a crypto-key addressable p2p connection-network there is a somewhat recent project which does this rather well: https://www.iroh.computer It punches through firewalls/NATs and establishes QUIC connections. They have two already useful PoC's: https://github.com/n0-computer/sendme https://github.com/n0-computer/dumbpipe
