* I'm not sure what you mean when you say "no server storage". It seems like it temporarily does have to be stored on your server to facilitate transfer. Please correct me if I'm mistaken or update your site to explain how your site works.
* People that care about privacy are probably a target market for you if your service is able to deliver.
* The name of your site is "fppr". Pronounced quickly, that sounds like "Fapper". Please tell me that this is intentional because that's amusing.
- Scryptonite 14y agoMy best guess is that it uses WebRTC for P2P transfer. It may also use WebSockets to connect to a private room (which only one source-client and one destination-client may join) and streams it. EDIT: It would appear that it is the latter, in that it uses Socket.IO to stream it to the server and down to the recipient. The server could copy it as it is streamed, and I didn't really delve into the source of the webpage to know if it has any encryption or anything.
- i_vetrov 14y agoYes, it is Socket.IO. And there is no encryption yet, just some tricks to prevent multiple download.
- i_vetrov 14y agoYes, data gets to the server, but never on the harddrive. Thank you for your advice. Next step is privacy and encryption! I've never thought about "Fapper"!... :) Well, it is "FilePopper" and fppr is for short url...
