For now, the file size limit is 10MB, and you can choose how long the file stays — anywhere from 1 day to 30 days. As for privacy and security, everything is end-to-end encrypted i…

Totally understand the concern — I’ve thought a lot about that. I'm not encouraging illegal use; it's designed for privacy-conscious developers, teams, and individuals who want sim…

Hey HN! I built a small project called DeadDrop – a tool for sharing files without needing logins or accounts. You just enter a name and a passkey, and your file is encrypted in th…
