BlackHoleProtocol VS magic-wormhole

<https://litterbox.catbox.moe>

Subscription is worth it imo:

<https://blackhole.run>

My personal favorite[0]:

0. try out this little script i use to make uploading files from a CLI dead easy: <https://gitlab.com/co1ncidence/dotless/-/blob/master/usr/bin...>

blackhole.run

And the secure alternative: http://blackhole.run

Grow up lol, it's a free ad free service and using a file transfer like https://blackhole.run/ or https://wormhole.app/ is not a gient inconvenience

↪ space.storage — Space is an end-to-end encrypted, open source, user-controlled cloud storage solution. Space uses Filecoin, IPFS, Etherium, and Textile to makeup their custom SDK. Read more about Space SDK here. For signup, you use an email, or other services, like Google or Twitter, and no password. To login, an email will be sent and upon approving the login you will be automatically redirected to your cloud. The storage is decentralized, so no one party has your (encrypted) files. The privacy policy is also good, with only an email, if provided, is collected, as well as anonymous usage data.

Some CLI alternatives if you don't need the GUI:

Croc: https://github.com/schollz/croc

Magic-Wormhole: https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole

I used to use MW but switched to croc as the single binary was easier to deploy.

On a similar note, can someone tell me what's the fastest (wireless) way to transfer files between two laptops on same network (i.e. hotspot)?

scp, rsync, wormhole give me only 2-3 mb/s.

What's causing the bottleneck here and what am I missing? Thanks in advance!

Check out wormhole. It works on Linux, Windows and MacOS, keeps your data entirely on the private network and uses HTTP as the underlying transfer vehicle. Since HTTP isn't nearly as bothered by high latency (as compared to SMB or FTP), this is probably as fast as you will be able to transfer files on that high latency network.

You can try https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole

There's the python magic-wormhole if you want a 1-to-1 data transfer just to OP by sharing the info through a chat/dm/whatever.

I prefer bashupload.com or transfer.sh for this. Both alternatives have worked well for me.

Alternatively, you can check out magic wormhole (for a more secure transfer of files between two terminals): https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole

If you do happen to have internet access, this tool is the best: https://github.com/magic-wormhole/magic-wormhole
