Greetings,

I was browsing through the forum here and I was wondering, how does Onion Share work exactly? And how are the other file sharing software or services from privacytools.io working? I have already tried Firefox Send once I wanted to share some photo's I believe via e-mail, but it just didn't work. To many errors. I'm now thinking of wanting to use Onion Share or one of the other file sharing options listed on privacytools.io, but I would like to know how they are working exactly. Are there better privacy focussed and privacy respecting options out there that I'm not aware of? Or would it be just find to use Onion Share? I'm finding Onion Share as well as Tor most interesting as well.

If you want to test with me we can share a book or whatever over it.

I don't know, I think I'm not trying it with strangers that I don't know. I'm new on this platform and I'm not having a lot of trust in users that are here just yet. I must reject your offer kindly, but I'm thinking that this is just to much of a risk for me to do right now. You could give me instead some description or something about how it works though.

Idk lol, that's why I proposed to try it. By trying you get to know how it works, ask a friend or something.
