Show HN: Drop, Click, Paste: The easiest file sharing on the planet
- kruhft 10y agoHere's an example audio track being shared: http://dropclickpaste.com/#c767c5c7cce02285b3e564375996ba18191bdca5 http://dropclickpaste.com/#c767c5c7cce02285b3e564375996ba181...
- brudgers 10y agoPerhaps there are some low-hanging user experience improvements. The link did not appear to provide an audio file. Instead it provided me with a request to turn the site into an app in my browser; a link to a social media page; and a cryptocurrency address to which I could send money.
- kruhft 10y agoDid you see the message about the browser not being supported? Which browser and platform were you using? I can't say I've seen that behaviour at all yet. Also, it takes a few moments for the share to start; maybe you closed the tab too soon?
- brudgers 10y agoI tried it again and waited and the download happened and then it played. The white text on grey background during the download was hard to read and it might make sense for the progress bar to display as soon as the page is hit and the event fired off rather than being in response to an async request completing. Curious what browsers are not supported and why. Still not a fan of the site asking requesting some additional permission.
- kruhft 10y agoBrowsers without WebRTC support are not supported, which basically means Safari and a few others. I'm curious about the additional permissions you speak of. Maybe you could share a screenshot?
- brudgers 10y agoAcross the top of Firefox: Add instant.io (dropclick.com) as an application for magnet links? [1] Not supporting Safari seems to defeat the purpose a bit when the user's purpose is sharing links easily. [1] Preceded by a unicode heart [HN does not allow display] and followed by a button.
- kruhft 10y agoReally I've only tested in chrome. Thanks very much for the information.
- kruhft 10y agoI've done a site redesign and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it now.
