Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

LocalSend: Open-source, cross-platform file sharing to nearby devices
You first start one server on a desktop/laptop which has the software, and then any client (Android, iOS, PlayStation, Kindle, etc) with a web browser (no need to install any client software) can upload or download files from it.
You can download prebuilt binaries for x86-64 Linux, Windows, or Mac OS (sorry, no prebuilt binaries for Apple Silicon, but they could be added if there is sufficient demand) from https://github.com/akovacs/uploadserver/releases/ or compile from source using a nightly rust toolchain if you prefer.
Compared to cloud services or `python -m http.server 8000`, this is extremely fast since the server is written in rust, it is fairly simple (compiled and stripped binary is typically less than 3MB), it sends everything over local LAN, it seems to handle large files (over 4GB) fairly well, and you only need to install the software on one machine.

Localsend: Open-Source Airdrop Alternative
If you don't have a network connection, you can setup an adhoc hotspot on any Android 9+ (Settings > Network & internet > Hotspot & tethering https://support.google.com/android/answer/9059108) or iPhone (Settings > Personal Hotspot), then connect to it using any WiFi-enabled device.
A useful filesharing utility that a friend wrote is https://github.com/akovacs/uploadserver - it's basically a nicer version of:
python -m http.server 8000

Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another
Basically just start the file server, and then navigate to it using the web browser of your choice on any device (no need for a client application).
Download prebuilt binaries from https://github.com/akovacs/uploadserver/releases/
Or install from source if you prefer:
# install rust toolchain

LANDrop – Drop any files to any devices on your LAN
A similar utility (much more bare-bones though) that a friend wrote is https://github.com/akovacs/uploadserver
It works on Windows, Mac, and Linux, and therefore should probably work on FreeBSD as well if you can install a Rust toolchain:
pkg install curl

OpenDrop: An open Apple AirDrop implementation written in Python
Another option (also not Airdrop compatible) is https://github.com/akovacs/uploadserver which is a Rust (Rocket) web server that you can run on a local machine. Open a browser and navigate to the machine's IP address at port 8000 to upload/download files from the web form.

Is this something to worry about?
I'm sure it could be misused, but by itself it's fine - https://github.com/saljam/webwormhole

Show HN: AV1 and WebRTC
AV1 support is already available in libwebrtc!
So when I started building Pion the target use case was to make it easier to build scalable servers. Instead of interacting with a WebRTC servers REST API to query information/load balance I wanted to have it all in one code base. It also is really useful to have Media+Transport decoupled. Lots of use cases I didn't realize grew out of that.
* Teleoperation/robotics (https://github.com/Ragnar-H/TelloGo)
* Control remote software (https://github.com/m1k1o/neko)
* Cross platform file sharing (https://github.com/saljam/webwormhole)
* Sending pre-recorded media (RTMP/HLS/RTSP -> WebRTC)
* Custom DataChannel servers/bridges (https://snowflake.torproject.org/)
Lots of other cool ones in https://github.com/pion/awesome-pion I need to update it. It has been a bit since I have looked through https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/pion/webrtc/v3?tab=importedby

A website that connects two devices by creating ephemeral pipes between computers to send files or other data. You can directly copy-paste data or text as well.
Fair question, this server or the code is not owned by me and is available on GitHub. Though after reading up on it, if the server was ever to be compromised it would be possible to inject malicious code in between, this, however, could be mitigated if you were to use the command-line utility mentioned on the Github page. Or you could use Chrome and Firefox extensions, as there is no remote code loaded and no extra permissions needed.

Wormhole-GUI v2.2.0 has been released
You can use https://github.com/saljam/webwormhole if you want P2P file transfer.
It only has a CLI tool right now for desktops. It works in the browser though, so that is great for users looking for a GUI!
What are some alternatives?
sharedrop - Easy P2P file transfer powered by WebRTC - inspired by Apple AirDrop
OnionShare - Securely and anonymously share files, host websites, and chat with friends using the Tor network
qrsend - ⌨ Send files over WIFI by scanning QR code in terminal
magic-wormhole - get things from one computer to another, safely
NearDrop - An unofficial Google Nearby Share app for macOS
hyperboot - offline webapp bootloader
