    How it works: I don’t know about this service in particular, but usually the shared contains the encryption key so like this: example.com/files/file_id/encryption_key or something similar

    As for trust: This appears to be a individual, so you will have to just trust it when using the public instance. However, since it is FOSS, you can audit the code and spin up your own instance

      spin up your own instance

      Absolutely. If you’re at all worried about sending files through third party sites, set up your own. Provided you trust your own security skills, of course.

      I would certainly be more interested in having an install under my own domain than using some rando’s that I don’t know.
