Hey, @switchingsocial, I'm looking for an open-source, trustable, service to share/backup files with my (non-tech) family between computers (not phones/tablets).

For energy reasons, I'd like to avoid hosting yet another physical device, so I'm looking for something kind of like Dropbox.

I believe that BTSync would have worked, but doesn't seem to exist anymore.

Do people have suggestions?

@Yoric @switchingsocial@mastodon.at how about onionshare

@blacklight447 @switchingsocial Onionshare looks great for sharing a single document, but I want to share many files (it's for backups of family documents), and I don't need quite *that much* safety.

@Yoric @switchingsocial@mastodon.at well you could put all documents in a zip file. That way they also take up less space :)
