"If I was feeling paranoid and wanted to know if my files are being sent to some third destination..."

then I would not use a third party website.

But I'm not feeling paranoid. Rather, I like downloads. I like so-called "native apps", otherwise known as programs. I like them written in certain languages. I like to read and edit the source code. Javascript is not one of the languages I prefer. Nothing against it. I just don't have much need for it.

  Drop any files to any devices on your LAN.

  

Looks like it is not. Maybe someone wants to maintain a fork.

• piping-server-rust

  2 274 8.9 Rust

  Infinitely transfer between every device over pure HTTP with pipes or browsers

https://github.com/nwtgck/piping-server-rust/releases/expand...

https://github.com/nwtgck/go-piping-server/releases/expanded...

There is also a Typescript version.

Unlike MagicWormhole, this does not require Python. Any HTTP client will do, whether graphical browser, text-only browser, curl, anything that can make HTTP requests. Javascript is optional.

There is an example server run by the author for testing but unlike MagicWormhole it is not a default; the address is not found anywhere in the source code.

Magic Wormhole, or PAKE in general, might be well-suited for transferring files between two or more parties, but here the question was about transferring files between two computers operated by the same party.

• uploadserver

  6 23 0.0 Rust

  Simple Rust file server which lets you upload, share, and download files from a web browser. Ready-to-run binaries for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Free/Open-Source alternative to AirDrop/Dropbox for transferring files on your local network without having to install anything. A more sophisticated version of `python3 -m http.server 8000`.

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
