PicoShare

PicoShare is a minimalist file-sharing service you host yourself: upload any file and get a direct download link that anyone can open, with no ads, no signups, and no size or format restrictions. Send a client a 4 GB video or a raw photo archive and they download the exact bytes you uploaded, because PicoShare never resizes or re-encodes media while sharing. Every upload can carry an expiration, from a day to never, and an optional private note that only you can see. When other people need to send files to you, create a guest link instead of asking for email attachments: guests upload through the link with no account, and you set the maximum file size, the total number of uploads, and an expiry date for each link. The files list shows everything you have shared with sizes, upload dates, and expirations, and every entry offers one-click link copying and deletion. A single shared secret guards the admin side, and all data lives in one SQLite database file that you can back up or replicate to cloud storage automatically. Run it as one small Docker container on your own domain and your download links stay yours. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. AGPL-3.0 licensed.

PlikShare

Sending a client a big file should not mean renting seats on someone else's cloud, and PlikShare turns your own server into a file sharing platform with unlimited users, unlimited workspaces, and no per-seat pricing. Its central idea is the box: a controlled gateway between your folders and the outside world, where you invite collaborators, mint anonymous links, and decide who may upload, download, preview, or drop files into an upload-only inbox. Quick share links carry custom slugs, expiry dates, passwords, and download caps, and every box can embed into another website as a live widget whose permissions update the moment you change them. Storage is your choice per workspace, from the server's own disk to S3, Cloudflare R2, Backblaze B2, Azure Blob, Google Cloud Storage, or any S3-compatible server, and each storage picks one of three encryption modes, including full encryption where names and contents are sealed with keys derived from each user's password. Bulk uploads arrive as a single zip that rebuilds its folder structure on landing, bulk downloads assemble from an explorer tree, and previews cover video, audio, PDFs, Markdown with diagrams, and even the inside of zip archives. Single sign-on through multiple OIDC providers, granular admin roles, an optional MCP server for scoped AI agents, and OCR or chat integrations round out a platform that stays lean on a small server.
