Alternative to We Transfer?
« on: March 29, 2025, 06:29:42 PM »
I've been using the free version of We Transfer for years, seamlessly. Now, they're trying to collect $84/year, for the same parameters. What's everyone else using, for moving files?

Ran into this WT issue lately. Used my free Google drive which has a 15 GB limit, but no expiration dates.

I use Google Drive, and pay $20USD a year for 100GB extra storage space.
It is not set up as an simple file transfer service, though. You have to control who gets access and how. But it does not seem to have expiration dates, size or speed limits. Weirdness can ensue if you move folders of large files. Downloaders apparently are forced to wait for Google to ZIP the files upon download, which can take a looong time for big video files - or it fails, I won't wait that long. I give downloaders direct links to large files and they have to do each one separately.

Too bad. 5 downloads were acceptable, but only 1 is sad indeed.

In the more expensive but full control of your shiz realm, I have a web server at AWS. Leaving it on constantly with 30G of storage costs me $18/mo. Charge is by hours it's running so you could shut the machine down aside from when you want to send something and save $.

I haven't set up ftp which would give me user access permissions, but setting up an HTML page with a D/L link is dead ass simple.

Thanks for all the suggestions and options. I'm going with Swiss Transfer, and from what I see, it's better yet, than WT! Cheers, all
