  • snapdrop

    A Progressive Web App for local file sharing

  • I found this (snapdrop), haven't ever heard of it until just now and haven't tested in the wild. It seems like all it requires is a browser, and two devices on the same network.

  • qsrv

  • I use scp & rsync to send files between my machines, and this thing to spin up a simple HTTP server, when I need to get a file onto some other device. Pretty much everything supports HTTP.

  • croc

    Easily and securely send things from one computer to another :crocodile: :package:

  • I use croc, pretty much similar to wormhole, but I like it better. As you say, there don't seem to be easy tools installed by default on major distros, I mean, with croc the most 'difficult' hurdle is to install it (meaning: it's very easy, except for friends that are scared of terminals), once it's installed, it's as simple as ‘croc send filename’, it's secure for its goal and you can use it both for lan or wan, as needed.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
