an interesting thing, but there is a question: I send a file to your server and give a link to my friend -> how will he (you or someone) decrypt the file if, as you claim, only I have the keys?
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@new_user_8304dd2293 The secret key used for end-to-end encryption is never shared with our servers. It is sent directly to your intended recipient when you send them the "share link". The secret key is added to the URI fragment (the part of the URL after the "#" symbol) which is never sent to the server. You can read more about our security design on our Security page.

Great work, @feross! Big fan. This is an entirely separate protocol and service from magic-wormhole[1], right? 1. https://github.com/magic-wormhol...
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@xd1936 Yes, this is an independent protocol and implementation. It's much closer in spirit to Firefox Send, if you remember that service.

E2E encryption + P2P Filesharing = pure awesomeness! I like your manifesto too. How long do files stay online?
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@atmos_black THANKS! We host your files for 24 hours, but we're considering supporting up to a week as an option.

Congrats on the launch! @feross - can you add hardware tokens support to facilitate the encryption - if you can ipfs as a storage option, that would be great too!

@eugenehp Thanks!

The most "simple" products are always the most exciting ones. Love it.

This is awesome, love the architecture (also the wormhole)

@__tosh Thank you – we think the wormhole is fun :)
Benoit Chambon
Like your UI!!! What's your encryption protocol? Check this out @nazim_m
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@nazim_m @benoit_chambon We have a Security page where you can read about the security design. Product Hunt isn't letting me link it, but you just add /security onto our site URL.

This is awesome and I've been looking for something like this since Firefox Send disappeared. One question, is it possible to manually delete files after they've been downloaded or set a download limit?
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@aimanfarooq Right now we don't offer that option, but that's a great suggestion and we'll add it to the list.

@feross This is insane! Love the UX and UI. And the speed is so good. You might want to add milder graphics for the ones with super anxiety levels. 😅
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@iprashantpillai Thank you Prashant! We tried really hard to make the UX and UI something really special! We're working on an option to respect the user's "Prefer reduced motion" operating system setting.
Feross Aboukhadijeh
@iprashantpillai We just added support for reduced motion! https://twitter.com/Wormhole_App...
