Been running a selfhosted PairDrop instance for about a year now and it's amazingly useful. No apps to install, just web based "AirDrop" that works across macOS, Windows, iOS, Linux...

Out of interest, What’s the advantage of self hosting vs using the web version on the main page? Are there security or convenience benefits?


The main ones for me are not being dependent on someone else's server, and being able to use my own domain name.
