im working on a p2p file transfer app. at the moment its a close-source webapp, but i hope to work towards some selfhosted options as seen on my other projects.

the storage is local-only from your browser/device. so like “the cloud”, but the cloud storage capacity is made up of your devices.

ive recently updated the landing page and i hope ive got it as simple as possible to transfer a file from one device to another.

im looking for feedback on the experience.

(Note 1: its still a work in progress. if there is an issue, you can usually refresh the browser and try again)

(Note 2: it seems important to mention: this app is not libre software. This needs more consideration to see if I can align to this. For similar open-source projects, take a look at the docs.)

    Same thing here. If I don’t see a source code repository, the result is an obvious no-go. Especially because I’m pretty sure there are others, similar projects that either exist in the wider closed source space.

    Accountability is an important thing for these kinds of apps. Unfortunately, if you don’t have a reputation online, that’s about as bad as having a bad reputation. No offense intended, it’s just inevitable.
