Hey fediverse, what's the best alternative to suggest when a relative wants to use wetransfer? I used to suggest Firefox send, but that's not an option anymore, and the relative isn't technical enough to use wormhole...

@o0karen0o I find linx instances to be a pretty good alternative. I run one at up.nixnet.services but there are a bunch of others scattered around

@o0karen0o dang, that's a tough one. Would it be feasible to set up some kind of shared folder that they can drop files into?Theoretically, you could use anything from DropBox to NextCloud, as long as a basic persistent integration is set up with the file manager. I think Windows and macOS have dedicated NextCloud Sync clients that keeps the setup pretty easy?

@o0karen0o Caveat: of course, this requires a server somewhere. 😅

@o0karen0o Have a look at #Retroshare: https://retroshare.cc. No practical experience to share, but on paper it looks appropriate:- Fully decentralized, and designed to provide maximum security and anonymity.- Retroshare uses swarming similar to BitTorrent, to accelerate transfers.- Possible to share large files.- Privacy and anonymity is guaranteed beyond direct friends with anonymous tunnels.

@o0karen0oOnionshare maybe ... It's not really difficult to use it. https://lazybear.io/posts/onionshare-or-private-sharing/
