magic-wormhole VS fiche

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.

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

http://termbin.com/ and it can be selfhosted too https://github.com/solusipse/fiche

Also another way to share a journal or the output of any command is to pipe it directly to a pastebin like (termbin)[https://termbin.com/] with a command like journalctl -u libvirtd.service | nc termbin.com 9999. journalctl won't truncate any lines if it is redirected, as happened in your paste.

to explain, this command will cat (contcatinate) all the files in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ folder and then the pipe will send the output of the command into the netcat program instead of to your screen. Netcat is used to transmit or recieve data over the network. and termbin.com is like a pastbein service. 9999 is the port number used, like your browser will usually use port 80 and 443, but hide the port number from the urls because its implicit when using http or https

Or https://termbin.com/ if you're doing it from a terminal.

one alias of termbin to share text content

termbin: As I learned today after setting up a shell function last night, it relies on port 9999(? Which seems like it's blocked at Dunkin' Donuts... or at least I get the error: ztcp:16: connection failed: connection timed out that I didn't at home.

I want to run the service in my local network for high throughput and a little more privacy. termbin.com runs fiche, which seems like a nice, minimal tool, but it does not provide any web interface, so it would be harder to use from Windows (or even from a phone).
