LANDrop – Drop any files to any devices on your LAN
https://github.com/nwtgck/piping-server-rust/releases/expand...
https://github.com/nwtgck/go-piping-server/releases/expanded...
There is also a Typescript version.
Unlike MagicWormhole, this does not require Python. Any HTTP client will do, whether graphical browser, text-only browser, curl, anything that can make HTTP requests. Javascript is optional.
There is an example server run by the author for testing but unlike MagicWormhole it is not a default; the address is not found anywhere in the source code.

Magic Wormhole, or PAKE in general, might be well-suited for transferring files between two or more parties, but here the question was about transferring files between two computers operated by the same party.

Secure TCP tunnel from anywhere with curl and nc for single connection
All communication outside is complete in HTTP/HTTPS. The protocol is also familiar, widely used, accepted, and trusted already. Piping Server is open on GitHub, developed in TypeScript and Node.js. Other implementations in Rust and Go are provided as open-source. The server is designed to keep simple as possible to verify the source and reduce the potential of bugs.

The Rise and Fall of 3M's Floppy Disk
I agree and get your point.
But localsend has worked well for me. Yes, it requires an app but if we could get vendors to bundle that rather than a boatload of bloatware.
I know that it would be to optimistic to hope for Google.

iPhone Copy to PC Shortcut
Edit: This is very simple implementation, even a POC, for personal use between our own devices at home or other personal private network. Even works on hotspot. But no HTTPS, so don's use on non-private networks. LocalSend, as suggested by u/Fede777 seems to be better for every other use.
