I've been hosting my own pairdrop for a year now, very easy and quick to share a file between my smartphone and laptop without digging out a usb cable.
I use Telegram for that. Also good for taking notes or reminders for yourself without having to use a separate app.
Telegram doesn't support markdown though, that's why I decided to build writedown.app

Secret chats don’t work between the desktop client and the app, so I would suspect that, like the rest of the messages, everything is saved on telegram’s servers in the clear.
Or am I missing something?
I'm curious about the effectiveness of your other app, NoFap, a browser extension. You might need something a bit less easy to control to make it useful. Just my two cents.

I've got another one on the topic of self-hosted file sharing: - FileBrowser ( https://filebrowser.org/features ) - Syncthing ( https://syncthing.net/ ) Run both as Docker containers on a server at home. Syncthing keeps the files on your PC, Mac, and BSD systems in sync, and FileBrowser can point to the sync share and supply a convenient web UI for phones, etc. It works for me, it's kind of like a local Dropbox.
Syncthing does not need a server to work over the LAN, and I think you can set it to only use peer discovery over a LAN. You can disable pubic servers, but data sent through them is encrypted anyway. Syncthing + KDE connect does a lot. The only issues I have had is that I cannot ensure that both are always running on android.
For example, imagine you save a file on your laptop then put it to sleep. You turn on your desktop and the file isn't there because the laptop is now asleep. Having a central 24/7 Syncthing server allows the share to always be available.
How can this work without a a server? You surely need a third party to traverse NAT.
