File Sharing

Send

!!! recommendation

![Send logo](assets/img/file-sharing-sync/send.svg){ align=right }

**Send** is a fork of Mozilla’s discontinued Firefox Send service which allows you to send files to others with a link. Files are encrypted on your device so that they cannot be read by the server, and they can be optionally password-protected as well. The maintainer of Send hosts a [public instance](https://send.vis.ee/). You can use other public instances, or you can host Send yourself.

[:octicons-heart-16:](https://github.com/sponsors/timvisee){ .card-link title=Contribute }

Send can be used via its web interface or via the ffsend CLI. If you are familiar with the command-line and send files frequently, we recommend using the CLI client to avoid JavaScript-based encryption. You can specify the --host flag to use a specific server:

ffsend upload --host https://send.vis.ee/ FILE

OnionShare

!!! recommendation

![OnionShare logo](assets/img/file-sharing-sync/onionshare.svg){ align=right }

**OnionShare** is an open-source tool that lets you securely and anonymously share a file of any size. It works by starting a web server accessible as a Tor onion service, with an unguessable URL that you can share with the recipients to download or send files.

Criteria

Please note we are not affiliated with any of the projects we recommend. In addition to our standard criteria, we have developed a clear set of requirements to allow us to provide objective recommendations. We suggest you familiarize yourself with this list before choosing to use a project, and conduct your own research to ensure it's the right choice for you.

!!! example "This section is new"

We are working on establishing defined criteria for every section of our site, and this may be subject to change. If you have any questions about our criteria, please [ask on our forum](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/latest) and don't assume we didn't consider something when making our recommendations if it is not listed here. There are many factors considered and discussed when we recommend a project, and documenting every single one is a work-in-progress.
  • Must not store decrypted data on a remote server.
  • Must be open-source software.
  • Must either have clients for Linux, macOS, and Windows; or have a web interface.

FreedomBox

!!! recommendation

![FreedomBox logo](assets/img/file-sharing-sync/freedombox.svg){ align=right }

**FreedomBox** is an operating system designed to be run on a [single-board computer (SBC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-board_computer). The purpose is to make it easy to set up server applications that you might want to self-host.

File Sync

Nextcloud (Client-Server)

!!! recommendation

![Nextcloud logo](assets/img/productivity/nextcloud.svg){ align=right }

**Nextcloud** is a suite of free and open-source client-server software for creating your own file hosting services on a private server you control.

!!! danger

We don't recommend using the [E2EE App](https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/end_to_end_encryption) for Nextcloud as it may lead to data loss; it is highly experimental and not production quality.

Syncthing (P2P)

!!! recommendation

![Syncthing logo](assets/img/file-sharing-sync/syncthing.svg){ align=right }

**Syncthing** is an open-source peer-to-peer continuous file synchronization utility. It is used to synchronize files between two or more devices over the local network or the internet. Syncthing does not use a centralized server; it uses the [Block Exchange Protocol](https://docs.syncthing.net/specs/bep-v1.html#bep-v1) to transfer data between devices. All data is encrypted using TLS.
