ps: I really wish HN supported basic markdown so we can make bullet lists and other simple formatting controls, nothing wild like citation/footnote support just the top 5-10 markups. Trying to make a list of URLs to share looks like ass here.
Might also consider https://file.pizza for p2p transfers. And my own service https://patchbay.pub. Or fibridge [0] if you want to self host. The main advantage of patchbay and fibridge over other solutions I've seen is they support range requests, so you can do things like streaming and resumable transfers.
I've been building a list[1] of file transfer tools with their perks, there's a few new ones from this thread that I will add.
I used to run a transfer service myself but it wasn't up to scratch with the competition and it was costing me money so I decided to aggregate them instead.
There's something to be said about using the Dropbox or Firefox options when sending a file. I'm not familiar with the other companies and so for all I know they are saving the file looking for valuable info. Middrive.io doesn't even resolve for example.
I like the idea of summaries (like you did) and wish HN would figure a way to do this also for points that people make in comments. Even if not same day or later.
My top 5 wishlist: bold, italic, lists, inline code `` and link formatting [](). (edit: and change 2 spaces indent to 4 spaces indent for code blocks to align with real markdown)
