"It's ridiculously difficult to share a single file online without a bunch of hassle.
Most sites either riddle their pages with ads so you have to guess where the correct download button is and usually restrict useful features to their premium users.
All those useful features have been added to NoFile and made available for anyone who wants to use it - all free from ads, registrations, payments and it respects your privacy.
Here are some of the current features (more to come):
* Simple upload process compatible with nearly all devices - accepts files as large as 10 GB to be uploaded
* Upload & download files without Javascript enabled (nearly all features are still available, although the site runs smoother with Javascript enabled)
* Password protect files (hashed with SHA256)
* Ability to encrypt files with AES-128 on the client-side before uploading to the server for secure storage (BETA)
* Easily view the metadata of a file (file type, dimensions, upload date, size, etc.) on its download page (URL to a live demo below)
* Preview files (PDF viewer, video/image/audio previews) before downloading (see demo URL below)
* All transfers are made securely over HTTPS to prevent malicious users from viewing what you're downloading/uploading (forced SSL)
* Securely view your upload history without having to create an account (history is stored in your browser's local storage)
* Save files directly to Dropbox (Dropbox scripts are only loaded when button is pressed to protect your privacy)
* No tracking codes and no third-party CDNs are used for external scripts, CSS or fonts in order to protect your privacy

- portify 10y agoIt looks like the 'Forum URL' and 'HTML URL' fields on the upload completed page are mixed up
- NoFile 10y agoFixed, thanks for pointing that out.

- amelius 10y ago> It's ridiculously difficult to share a single file online without a bunch of hassle. Most sites either riddle their pages with ads so you have to guess where the correct download button is and usually restrict useful features to their premium users. Imho, if you really want to be the "Google of file-sharing", then the UI should be a lot less distracting.
- binocarlos 10y agoI have to say I humbly agree with this advice - the NoFile.io name got me clicking (the most difficult hurdle) - then when stuff started to animate I thought 'oh' and closed the window. Perhaps this is small minded of me :-)
- NoFile 10y ago"Google of file-sharing" would be a too heavy title to hold right now. The animations are there in the background to give the site a comfortable touch, but it should be easy to distinguish them from the actual site content (e.g the download button comes inside a "box" with a different background color and animated icons hidden underneath). Perhaps it would be useful to add an option that toggles the animations on/off.
