What is the best FOSS file sharing protocol/app? (preferably CLI)

Hello fellow lemmy users ,

i was wondering whats the best file sharing protocol/app/website , tbh send.vis.ee seems to be currently the best to me but still i wanted your opinion here are things i found -

  1. Localsend
  2. ffsend
  3. croc
  4. webtorrent
  5. magic-wormhole
  6. using curl on 0x0.st or pixeldrain
  7. (anonfiles has left so thats sad)
  8. rsync / ssh
  9. onionshare
  10. ipfs

#from what i am hearing , magic-wormhole makes the most sense since they seem to be the most open standard of sharing files but still seems incomplete or the lack of information on such topic makes me feels wierd.

croc seems to have a lot of cve and magic wormhole passed that test from suse's audit. webtorrent seems to fit in a wierd niche and its implementations like file.pizza arent really that well built ( considering you cant send multi files over there)

i would prefer cli but gui's as well so that i can send it to somebody else , i would like foss protocol since we can build on that other apps as well , and earlier i used to use shareit which was so bad that literally the govt pulled it because of chinese concerns\ currently using localsend but warp (magic-wormhole)/warpinator is also looking good

As you know, our blockade is perfectly legal
  • lol george lucas , i really liked maul but for some reason i liked qui gon more!!!!!

    spoiler

    the whole story could've changed if qui gon didnt die

    anakin would've lived a happy life with padme anakin wouldn't have to life his last of life thinking he killed his wife and padme didnt had to die thinking that anakin's dead thus fulfilling anakin's dream

  • what is your favorite lemmy instance?
  • db0 , i really like your server tbh but my monyet.cc is serving me currently well the fact that you have a photon , tensorrect etc as alternate frontends is kinda cool as well :p thanks man , we as a community appreciate your instance and its c/piracy -fellow pirate

  • why are threat actors using telegram and not simplex / briar /jami etc.

    I dont understand why threat actors / hackers use telegram which obtains your phone number and not simplex or even signal for that matter

  • ull, Arkenfox, Brave SimpleX, Briar, Anonymous Messenger Onionshare Torbrowser Orbot or i2p alternatives that work Monero a privacy friendly Keyboard like Floris

    yea but floris is lacking features .

  • Privacy minded ` instant messaging ` quest.
  • speek sucks in my opinion , i tried it ,

    tbh jami is the best app currently in the p2p messenging space

    berty sounds good as well , its built on top of ipfs and weshgaurd

    tox is good as well

    (i have messaged briar and berty team regarding some questions and i havent gotten its answer , i will update you when i get the answer)

  • Privacy minded ` instant messaging ` quest.
  • https://www.securemessagingapps.com/ if you see closely for session , it says that attachments are centralized in their servers in canada

    session tries to promote their oxen cryptocurrency and lokinet which imo crypto currency are used by baiters to bait people into ruining their money

    you dont understand what signal /molly is , do you ? they are centralized server and OP specificially asked not centralized server / server for that matter

    matrix is good but it still need server , plus matrix.org takes quite a bit of metadata

    jami's good but it uses turn server to verify your name

    briar's bluetooth functionality can be violated plus no good ui/ux

  • Which is better: Linux or GNU/Linux
  • i am sry to say but half my friends dont know what linux is except android runs on it they are surprised that linux can run on computers

    so ... I just say linux

    Also love this picture!

  • What "frugal" tricks have you found to just not be worth it, either in time or money?
  • you have to count inflation as well (although i believe us $ deprecates at a very less inflation rate) , but still the calculator you showed shows it can make 22% of total retirement fund

    Plus I believe coffee is just a legal drug which is why its so prominent , and as such i shouldn't use it

    But who knows maybe i will drink coffee as well?

  • What "frugal" tricks have you found to just not be worth it, either in time or money?
  • cut my own hair - takes 15-20 min once a month, which is less time than I'd spend getting to and from the barber; it's essentially free ($20-30 for clippers, which I've used for dozens of hair cuts), Where i live they do it under less than a $ ( i am a male)

    If you really want to live frugal i suggest piracy is the way to go but maybe your morals don't allow it.

  • they are technically allowed to .. so they do it . and i mean average iq of this world is 80-90 so i think they just download the 1st thing off playstore which is sponsored which is paid by showing them "ads"

    we need more technical knowledge among young people instead of having them become a coomer or waste their life playing games (something that huanted me is this: https://futurism.com/the-byte/gen-z-kids-file-systems)

  • good alternatives to raspberry pi which are cheap and efficient?
  • I really Dont know I am Ok with running chinese boards and also https://pine64.com/product-category/rockpro64/?v=0446c16e2e66

    the boards you are showing me are 80-90$ which to me is maybe a lot since raspberry pi prices have started to slow down as well

    Plus some dockers may not work and jellyfin is saying its not recommended to run it on rasp pi so i dont know actually

  • good alternatives to raspberry pi which are cheap and efficient?

    Hello , dear lemmy users , I am starting to really like self-host because they are really fast and mostly i use open source stuff (like lemmy /photon etc) which were sometimes slow but after self hosting it now on the pc i am on using , i really like it

    Now , I would like to host some stuff like jellyfin , navindrome , photon , adgaurd home and just leave it running on a device in maybe near future (i can convince my brother to pay for it , after he gets his job maybe)

    TLDR : I wanted to ask What's your favourite alternative to raspberry pi for simple self hosting or maybe possible near home automation

    Edit: thank you all for helping me , I am starting to believe that i should look into using dell wyse or the likes which are meant to be used for hosting or a old laptop (since i dont own a laptop anyway , i just own a pc ) and since i run linux anyways , i am thinking of owning a laptop dual booting it with alpine (that has docker) and a simple minimalist os like hyprland on it just in case i need to travel with it (which to me seems very unlikely , I dont travel much so..) I am confused about it

    Edit 2 : I am very new to self hosting so currently i would run stuff on my pc only (using portainer) , However when needed to buy , i am thinking of buying the cheapest thin client maybe a nuc or dell wyse

    I am already trying searxng , shiori(bookmark manager) , portainer,freshrss , photon , froodle-s pdf tool which i have all closed except portainer currently I am also thinking of shifting to podman as well but cant find a good gui for it like portainer , (portainer really just blew my mind with its templates)

    open source alternative to websites like iloveimg ?

    So Recently I came across stirling-pdf through this community only and i was wondering if something like this but for images exist

    https://www.iloveimg.com/

    (i wanted to upload image but there is smth wrong which i would look later into )

    2

    I used ai to create multiple images of linux and pacman

    Hello dear lemmy users , I am a fellow linux enthusiast who found about a particular website which made this image I hope you like it , lemmy fellows :) I would post this on other platforms like reddit /hackernews with the body being you should use lemmy

    I personally think 7th one is really cool

    Here are all the photos i took about linux *(pls note these are 20 images , if you want people i can maybe delete this post since it may look spam and there are more images that you may like as well that you may like)

    (you may have to scroll really much to see the comment section , i am sry for that)

    (some of these also take pacman since pacman is part of arch linux utility which is linux and the distro i use , i tried to incorporate Linux tusk into it but i couldn't i would look into that later 😀 )

    (i hope you enjoy)*
