Hello, i am looking for a self hosted application for sharing files like with wetransfer. I have tried the discontinued Firefox Send which has nice features like link expiry and works great in general but lacks authentication (only offers simple password protection). I also want the option to share with registered users. Is there anything similar out there? Thanks
Self hosted Wetransfer?

Croc has worked nicely for me when I had to transfer very large files. I’ll check out Korra next time if “async” means it will start transferring once the first file is hashed. That always annoyed me about Croc and I’d manually break my transfers into chunks because I didn’t want to wait 10min before even one file was transferred.

Not really. It’s async in the sense that you can send a file now, and the server will hold it in an encrypted state until your recipient comes to collect it.

I guess nextcloud could do it, but you get a whole lot more in the same package.

This is a bit overkill for my purposes…i just need the filesharing part…

No personal experience with it but this project seem to be interesting for your use case and have a docker do ot’s easy to test:
github.com/filebrowser/filebrowser

Yeah, I’ve used Nextcloud for this in the past too, but it looks like there’s a ton of other options as well.

Yeah, sftpgo.com seems to have a nice web frontend for users while also benefitting from all that sftp offers. Free open-source with paid support. github.com/drakkan/sftpgo

Since no one mentioned, there’s a Firefox send fork alive, send.vis.ee or src GitHub.com/timvisee/send

Try out file shelter. It’s super lightweight and works pretty reliably.

I think www.youtransfer.io is a wettasfer clone. Works perfectly.

Looks like it does not have user registration, does it?
angelsomething@lemmy.one 9 months ago
It does not, it’s meant to be single use as far as I know. But the link expiry can be customised

Vault warden Send Pair drop is also neat (an airdrop replacement)

You mean www.liquidfiles.com? I prefer open source…

You can selfhost Bitwarden/Vaultwarden (which I recommend, since it’s rewritten in Rust and you get all the premium features for free) and use Bitwarden Send. This is probably more secure than most other options.

Though for the actual password selfhosting part of it, that is too much for my blood. Much higher chance that I would seriously fuck something up and lose access to hundreds of services than the remote bitwarden server gets compromised or becomes too shitty to use.
Dehydrated@lemmy.world 9 months ago
You can continue using the cloud hosted version of Bitwarden and only use your own instance for file sharing.

If you have regular backups, not an issue. I use bitwarden self hosted through home assistant, which makes daily backups trivial.
