NeverUpload cuts out the middleman using P2P transfers:<br> 🔒 Zero Server Storage: Files stream directly between peers.<br> ⚡ Instant Transfers: No waiting for cloud uploads to complete.<br> 🔑 No Sign-ups: Open the site, pick a file, and send the link.<br> 🛠️ How It Works<br> WebRTC for direct data channels.<br> Web Crypto API for client-side encryption.<br> Lightweight Signaling Server used strictly for the initial handshake—file payloads never touch our servers.<br> 🧪 Try It Out &amp; Feedback<br> Test it right now at neverupload.app, open two browser windows or send a link to a friend.</p> showdev webdev privacy javascript
