ProjectSend VS Gokapi

I was looking for the same thing last month. I ended up using projectsend. https://github.com/projectsend/projectsend

You could try https://www.projectsend.org/ - that is pretty easy to set up, and looks nice, or if you want something more simple/efficient and fewer dependencies, there's also dl which I've been using for years.

Project Send perhaps?

I agree that Nextcloud would be your best choice, but if you don't like it, have a look at Projectsend

A lot of good suggestions in this thread. Adding Project Send to the list of software to check out as well.

I've used https://www.projectsend.org/ on my own server for years. Simple, effective, and free.

I just recently tried ProjectSend in Docker that I think will do what you want. In my case, I think I have it set up like you want:

gokapi is my goto for this requirement!

I maintain the Gokapi project, which does everything you mentioned above. For viewing in the webbrowser instead of regular downloads, you will need to use the hotlink URL instead of the regular one.

Sorry for being late to the party. I'm using gokapiand I'm very happy, that works very fine!

- Has a very clean looking download page with not much more than a "download" button, because I'd use it to send files to my very non tech-savvy mum (kind of like Gokapi for instance)

Yeah, just something to consider. Another good option is Gokapi

Gokapi works well for me, although it’s admin upload only (which you may want)
