transfer.sh

  • Drag any file to the website and get the link in render.
  • Upload large files.
  • Create an alias in .bashrc to upload files 
    transfer() { curl --upload-file ./$1 http://transfer.sh/$1; } allonym transfer=transfer

    Upload a file using

    $ transfer hello.txt
  • Files tin be download maximum 20 times to prevent corruption.
  • Link remains live for 2 weeks.

curl.io

The major drawback of cURL.io is that you need to open the browser to get a link for file upload.

  • Share files either encrypted or non-encrypted.
  • Uses gpg for encryption.
  • You need to open the website to generate the command to upload. This is necessary considering the unique key is generated beforehand and at that place is no dedicated client side software. Paste the file path in the text box and the panel below will show the generated command. Works for both secure and insecure mode.
