LocalSend: Open-source, cross-platform file sharing to nearby devices
> I wish quick share (né nearby share) was available on linux (even if via chrome).
I made NearDrop, which is a macOS implementation of Nearby Share: https://github.com/grishka/NearDrop
And of course, someone tried to reimplement it for other OSes: https://github.com/PlutoHDDev/CrossDrop

Apple cuts off Beeper Mini's access
> So what happens is that I gravitate to other ecosystems.
I use a Mac but an Android phone. Android because I require the ability to install apps from arbitrary sources, including piracy. Mac because modern Windows is so contemptuous towards its users, and desktop Linux falls apart unless you know the intricacies of its internals.
Anyway, transferring files between the two was a pain in the butt that eventually grew so immense I reverse engineered Google's Nearby Share and made this: https://github.com/grishka/NearDrop
Though yes, I'm not North American so iMessage is just a non-issue to me. I don't know anyone who uses it. Anyone hardly uses SMS for actual messaging between people, everyone's SMS inbox is 95% OTP codes and various other automatic notifications. Literally everyone who I communicate with is reachable through Telegram.

Localsend: Open-Source Airdrop Alternative
Nearby Share isn't locked down and, in fact, works just fine with zero Google involvement. Google only needs to be involved for limited device visibility and all the phone number stuff that entails.
Here's the protocol docs I wrote: https://github.com/grishka/NearDrop/blob/master/PROTOCOL.md
