How to copy a file between devices?
There is also Send.Vis.ee, which is a community fork of Firefox Send. It has always worked very well for me personally. There are many public instances available with varying sizes and expiring conditions.

safest way to share a document?
I think "Send" is perfect for u.

Overwriting your Windows partition
Could you share the project file, pretty please? :D Maybe using OnionShare (https://onionshare.org/) or Firefox Send (https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/)?

A guide on how to share (huge) files end-to-end encrypted using your browser
anyone can host it and there are lots of instances, some with generous file limits: https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/

Thoughts about Oshi - Anonymous file storage
dispite that the website looks clean, however I would still recommand a Send instance for now.

Which file sharing service is most secure? Or: which privacy method is most secure? See list
https://send.vis.ee/ or check the list at https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/ -- all of them are based on the original FF send code, some of them (IIRC) have limits like 10 GB

Is there any way to securely and privately send files between computers?
other alternatives: croc, transfer.sh (both come in single-binary forms for easy, non-root, install if you don't want to trust the "official" relay servers), firefox-send (see https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/)

Question about secure file transfer
if "store-and-serve" is OK, and especially when neither party wants to install a new tool, there's firefox send, or rather any number of clones (see https://github.com/timvisee/send-instances/ for a list). You're trusting that the encryption is happening, so that is not good enough don't use this

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.

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:
https://github.com/dennis-tra/pcp
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).

Show HN: Peer-to-Peer data transfer tool based on libp2p
One problem of p2p is bootstrapping.
When a p2p application starts the first time it needs to know how to contact the first peer. After that the first peer can give addresses of more peers. But how can the p2p application get the address of the first peer?
A solution would be a central server that maintains a list of peers. But this is not p2p. After all the point of p2p is that it doesn't need central servers.
https://github.com/dennis-tra/pcp#how-does-it-work uses IPFS to contact the first peer. OK.
However in the quest how to boostrap p2p I feel somewhat cheated. IPFS also needs to bootstrap. It's sort of kicking the can down the road.
I thought about a hardcoded algorithmically series of addresses. Let's say a repeatable random generator. An example: the first address is jec6r5bz.io, then 0ueasze6.ch, etc., the project would register the first few addresses and if they are blocked, register more addresses on that series. This way the application can bootstrap independent of a specific central server because it can try the next address if it doesn't work.
