Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another
I’m currently working on a new version of pcp [0]. Based on croc, magic-wormhole and the likes it doesn’t require a relay. It uses the IPFS DHT as a discovery point to connect two machines. Haven’t touched the currently released code in two years but the new hole punching capabilities of libp2p show promising result so I’m 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

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

I‘m 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).

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

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.

Ask HN: Best modern file transfer/synchronization protocol?
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!

File transfer solution on a high-latency link
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.

0x0: Share Files from Terminal
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
