What Hacker News says

5 sources
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

Show HN: AltSendme – Send files and folders anywhere, Simple, fast, and reliable

People shouldn’t need to share identifiable information or store private data on corporate servers to do something very basic as file transfer. Altsendme doesn’t have cloud infrastructure - just this minimal, functional, focused lightweight desktop binaries (Windows version 8 MB). It’s free and open-source and powered by Iroh and built with Tauri https://www.altsendme.com https://www.neowin.net/software/altsendme-021/ https://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/File-Sharing/AltSendm... https://mac.softpedia.com/get/Internet-Utilities/AltSendme.s... https://www.xda-developers.com/i-swapped-dropbox-for-this-se... https://www.jetelecharge.com/Internet/12395.php

Show HN: AltSendme – Open-source p2p file transfer tool based on Iroh

Hi HN! I believe people here are somewhat familiar with Iroh - the p2p networking library. It does Hole-punching and make use of QUIC connections between endpoints to enable peer-to-peer connectivity https://www.iroh.computer https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44379173 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4572755 Easiest way to make use of Iroh is through their in-house file transfer CLI tool called sendme https://www.iroh.computer/sendme Sendme uses iroh to establish direct links between devices for data transfer, and iroh-blobs to send and verify your files Features: - Free, for files & folders of any size - No account requirement - No server component - Fast - can saturate a 4Gbps connection. - Resumable fetching - Interrupted downloads pick up where they left off. - Integrity checks - Data is automatically verified for correctne

ss on both send and receive. What I have built is something that complements sendme, Started with their CLI tool fork, made it into a Tauri desktop application with very simple but modern UI (yes, I have read https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45760878, coincidence I guess) Altsendme has almost all the features that sendme offers plus it is interoperable with sendme CLI tool. Thank you.
