Localsend: Open-Source Airdrop Alternative
I don't know. After discovering PairDrop too, thanks to comments here, I've been testing it out to see if it could replace Warpinator [1] as a means to send files & directories between my PC and my Android phone when I'm at home.
First impression has been quite disappointing... I installed the PWA to my phone's home screen. Then opened up and paired with my PC as trusted device. Tried to send a PDF file from PC to phone, a dialog shows up with
File Received. PC has sent: file.pdf. Close/Download.
Upon clicking Download, Firefox (which is configured in Android as the default web browser) opens up, on the Homepage tab. Nothing else happens, and the file isn't downloaded. So I'm left pretty much confused about what should have happened vs. what did actually happen.
Good thing about Warpinator (and something I use a lot) is that you can enable accepting files without confirmation, and then you can drag & drop a whole folder to have it appear on the other device as-is. Something extremely useful but that I doubt web apps can achieve.

You can then use Syncthing or Warpinator alongside it to sync them to other devices.

ShareIt alternative
Other than those you mentioned, there is Warpinator. It works flawlessly for me. You need to create a hotspot manually if there is no internet.

Ask HN: Online File Repository System?
Checkout https://awesome-selfhosted.net/tags/file-transfer---web-base...
I've used https://filebrowser.org/ and it's okay. I've also Seafile, but my current setup is sftp clients (Transmit nowadays) and Syncthing if I need the files on multiple computers.

h5ai – modern HTTP web server index
Thanks for sharing. I wasn't aware of dufs and it looks very solid. Fileserver[0] is another popular choice, though it's more GUI-oriented for file operations.

Ask HN: Spreadsheets like Google Sheets but not from Google?
The OnlyOfffice desktop app is a pretty good and free alternative to Microsoft Office Suite. You can simply install it on your local machine for offline access.
OnlyOfffice is also self-hostable as a web app for a cloud alternative to Google Sheets.
Filebrowser is a self-hostable alternative to Google Drive.
There's a pull request open to integrate OnlyOffice with Filebrowser for self-hosted google-drive + google docs.

Ask HN: What is the best FOSS file sharing protocol/app?
For strictly local use, Google's Nearby share is technically FOSS but the documentation is basically non-existent and a proper Linux implementation is not here yet. Alternatives aren't hard to find though, with Mint's Warpinator or KDE Connect having worked well for me.
For non-local use (everything out of Bluetooth range), you almost have to trust a third party and it really depends on your use case. Want to send your friend a file or host pictures of your birthday for multiple people to download? For the former magic wormhole works great, for the later you could almost spin up a nextcloud or similar (personally I like https://github.com/filebrowser/filebrowser ). Want to regularly send files from device 1 to device 2? Now classic sync solutions like syncthing become really viable.
If everything else fails, FTP always has your back

Finally a decent file browser in Game mode
I have been looking for a file browser which can run in game mode and is reasonably user friendly for simple file operations (copy/delete/rename, etc). Most people recommend Dolphin. it does work but there are issues: the color scheme looks really weird in game mode. context menu does not like game mode, either. Got file browser working (https://github.com/filebrowser/filebrowser) in game mode, which essentially an Edge app accessing a web server on localhost (running as user service). It took some time to set up but the end result is exactly what I would like to have.

I need help creating a diy nas for under $1000
NextCloud is great for this, but if we're talking sharing files from your sync'd project collection, I'd probably instead recommend Filebrowser. You can point it to the same data store that syncthing is using and it'll make it easy to share the projects. Note that in order to do this you'll need to open up and expose filebrowser publicly. The simplest way to do this would probably be a cloudflare tunnel and for sharing files like this ad-hoc I don't see any issues with their TOS. For things like SyncThing though you'll still wanna do conventional port forwarding. the DIY approach instead of CloudFlare tunnel would be to port forward, set up a dynamic dns record, and set up letsencrypt certs
