Like Localshare but works over the internet?
Any recommendations appreciated
Thanks in advance
Syncthing
OnionShare
Syncthing?
pairdrop.net maybe?
It’s mainly for local network, but you can do internet transfers.
I use this all the time, also nice for text share.
I don’t think the entire service is open source but I really like https://wormhole.app/
OnionShare is FOSS and transfers files over TOR network.
SFTP should come with your OS. If you’re on *nix, some fiddling around with usergroups is recommended for security reasons.
why not something as basic as sftp?
One of the GUI versions of Magic Wormhole is the best and easiest way. Here’s my favorite https://rymdport.github.io/
rsync
Edit: Or maybe you want a GUI?
In order of personal preference:
scp (sftp)
rsync/openrsync
nfs
host files on an ftp server with ftpd
hosting files on an http server with httpd
Croc, although it’s command-line only.
Syncthing is also great but may not be what you’re looking for.
FileZilla.
FTP
Syncthing is pretty good.
