I'm Jorge, a 16yo dev from Venezuela. I just launched Ghost Drop, a tool to share files and text with absolute privacy.<br> Why use it?<br> E2E Encryption: Everything is encrypted in your browser. I can't see your data.<br> Text Sharing: Quickly share sensitive notes or code without creating a file.<br> No Friction: No accounts, no ads, no trackers.<br> Built for Speed: Optimized for slow connections (like the ones I deal with daily).<br> The Stack: Next.js + Supabase + Web Crypto API.<br> I'm fighting for visibility on Product Hunt today. If you value privacy and want to help an indie maker, check it out!<br> Try it here: <a href="https://gdrop.vercel.app" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://gdrop.vercel.app</a></p> <p>Product hunt: <a href="https://www.producthunt.com/products/ghost-drop-share-files-in-5-seconds" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://www.producthunt.com/products/ghost-drop-share-files-in-5-seconds</a></p> beginners showdev opensource javascript
