![]() Viewing uploaded files instead of downloading is also possible for image/audio/video mime-types by adding /preview to any link. ![]() ![]() Code is on github ( ) though I still have to change the license to be more permissive (I've decided that I won't pursue this as a commercial thing, just open a ticket if you want me to change the license sooner than whenever I work on this next). It auto-detects when you enter a link, otherwise treats text inputs as a pastebin, you can ctrl+v an image, and it has file uploads up to a few gigabytes. by allocating the link before you even entered any data), and due to being ephemeral it's also less prone to being used for phishing like other link shorteners are. It's made to be fast on any connection (e.g. Not like chat apps where you have to be connected to the other person first (even if that is yourself, need to navigate to that chat) and no need to install any software. You get a link like dro.pm/h which is short enough to even share over the phone or tell someone at a conference to open. That may help me actually as I think croc has too many users on the public relay and the cost of bandwidth is becoming too high to keep the public relay available after this year. But, you should totally use magic-wormhole if that floats your boat - its a great tool, along with psanford's Go version. I've been using croc everyday for over three years and I'm still very happy with it. I should hope this means that security is taken seriously.Īnyways, croc is pretty similar to wormhole except that it allows resuming files (which wormhole does not yet ) and has some peer discovery for local network transfers. It was fixed within a week, so I guess it is also true that croc has a history of fixing vulnerabilities, rather quickly. It even provides a drag and drop file interface, as well as even allowing access for sms messaging, call logs, app installs, and many other things.Croc maintainer here: like mentioned from the throwaway account above - yes, this is true that there was a recent major vulnerability. It is a free app in the play store for local network transfers, and provides a web interface to use with your computer’s browser. The best option, though, unless you are transferring a lot of data, is to use something like AirDroid. There is also a unity launcher in that thread if you’re on Ubuntu unity, however. You have to mount/dismount from command line. Here is a link to help you get it set up. Unfortunately, while Windows supports it natively just fine, linux solutions are fairly buggy as of right now.Ĭurrently, the most reliable (and it still is a little flaky to get going, but once connected is fine) that I have found is go-mtpfs. The benefit to this is simultaneous access on the Android device and the PC. Newer versions of Android mount storage as an MTP device instead of mass storage. If it doesn’t work out of the box or natively, then be sure to search your package manager for an MTP solution. I know in my experience, Mint (Ubuntu based) works out of the box, as does Manjaro (Arch based). However, it seems most Linux distros are now working with MTP fairly well. UPDATE: There are several, better alternatives to Airdroid now. ![]()
