Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another
Iām currently working on a new version of pcp [0]. Based on croc, magic-wormhole and the likes it doesnāt require a relay. It uses the IPFS DHT as a discovery point to connect two machines. Havenāt touched the currently released code in two years but the new hole punching capabilities of libp2p show promising result so Iām working on a new version.

[help] Use cli p2p to transfer files between 2 devices
I was wondering about this recently too. I found PCP - Peer Copy. Probably not secure enough to use in production. https://github.com/dennis-tra/pcp
- What is the easiest way to share files from linux within the same WiFi?

Send: A Fork of Mozilla's Firefox Send
Iāve also built a file transfer tool (CLI) with emphasis on decentralization. Itās a fully decentralized p2p file transfer tool based on libp2p:

Iām currently trying to make it interoperable with https://share.ipfs.io/#/ which resembles the functionality of the posted tool.

Found this thing called Wormhole, looks like a pretty good Firefox Send replacement
https://github.com/dennis-tra/pcp It's really really good on the technical side, though it's still a WIP and has no GUI yet (shouldn't be very hard to implement though).

LocalSend: Open-source, cross-platform file sharing to nearby devices
> I wish quick share (nƩ 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

10 Mac Apps I Regret Not Using Sooner

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

Those who use android phone - what software do you use to backup your phone to mac?
I don't necessarily back up my android to my Mac. I keep both environments separate, however, you can try this or this looks interesting but seems like some elbow grease involved
