If you need to send large files to someone, you can use Firefox Send:

https://send.firefox.com/

The file is encrypted, the urls are expiring, it costs nothing.



There is also http://transfer.sh [0]

I've used wetransfer for files up to 2GB (https://wetransfer.com). If you need more they have a very reasonable $12/mo pro plan that gives up to 20GB per transfer and options for password protection etc.


This is limited to 1GB. Dropbox is limited to 100GB file size.


That's their pro version. Free is limited to 100MB


Given that we hit a file size limit with the paid version of Box at the work the other day, this is welcome news.


It's 2.5 GB if you log in. For anything I share, that's plenty.


what has the best in file size and upload caps

I'd not heard of FF Send before this comment, and will now make use of it, so I think your comment is a bit misguided.


So? Are we not allowed to suggest alternatives? Let the customer choose and stop doing it for them. Especially by censoring.


Hey, easy there :) Nothing wrong with linking to an alternative.


>It is premium.

What you consider premium, I consider a rip off.


"You should treat other businesses with respect" no business deserves respect. a business is not a person. a business does not have human rights, nor human needs. a business is a social construct, deserving of about as much respect as, say, the concept of a deity, or a work of fiction.


I'm not sure I follow your reasoning. Are you saying that suggesting a relevant and free alternative by a non-profit is disrespectful towards Dropbox, and should not be allowed?


Why now ?
