Can we have this but something server less? Like using cloudflare workers and R2 (I know R2 is S3 compatible)
xkcd949.com is serverless (azure only tho, github.com/gfody/webrelay)

#12Any recommendations for s3/b2 - anyone can upload (or with password) and only the admin can download? Goal: allow customers to upload large files.
This is exactly what I use Firefox Send for in my org. It's not strictly "admin can download" but anyone with the password/link can download. The effect is the same.

#13AWS S3 scares the shit out of me.
The company I worked for misconfiguration one of the buckets and allowed uploads. A couple of months later there was a bill for $15k. Since apparently some spammers were using our service. Which is OK for a company but I would not want to use it as a private individual.

#15Apparently Thunderbird are working on reviving Firefox Send and adding encryption.
Overall Thunderbird seem to be doing white well from themselves since rejoining Mozilla: >$8m in donations last year I think.

I run https://www.wormhol.org
Ping me if you want your own instance.
It uploads to S3. I could make it such that only you/admin can download. Right now everyone with the link can.
Supports up to 5GB (S3's limit without doing multipart uploads).

#17Consider implementing a 'guest upload' feature with stricter expiration policies and file size limits. This could maintain security while allowing for more flexible use cases, especially in client-facing scenarios where bidirectional file sharing is necessary.

I just discovered this TH feature the other day when attaching a file to a mail but it looks like it works with plugins now, so you can use different providers.
Actually I came here to ask if Gokapi works with that Thunderbird feature.

Notwithstanding the fact that this was a user misconfiguration, S3 allows you to configure public access blocks to prevent this sort of thing.

I have never had to use them directly but the use-now-pay-later model feels scary to me for the same reason. Maybe they allow setting the upper cap to the monthly bill (crossing which they don't serve you until you intervene) but I have never heard of it. On the other hand there are many stories extremely ballooned bills for some unforeseen reasons.
