What is 'end-to-end encrypted' about dumbdrop?
I ran a quick test by running
docker run -p 3000:3000 -c /private/tmp/dumbdrop:/app/uploads dumbwareio/dumbdrop:latest
Opened localhost:3000 and uploaded a file.
A copy of that file is now sitting, unencrypted in /tmp/dumbdrop. Searched the documentation for the work encrypt and found nothing.
Really love the KISS concept.
I like the idea of simple apps, but does their website have to have that silly dvd bouncing thing obstructing text? Especially since it starts playing sound if you interact with it wrong.
Something seriously ironic about pushing stupidly simple appels while having ridiculous bloated crap like that on the webpage. I immediately closed it out before getting a chance to read anything. On mobile that stupid bouncer takes up like a quarter of the width of my screen and why the hell is it the most foreground object???
Their site works fine without allowing javascript, that way it turns into quite a simple thing too!
Thank you, I was so confused as to what the other comments were talking about. I have js turned off by default.
This is hilarious, I love it. I know a lot of us take for granted that we can whip something like these up on the fly but there’s plenty of people who could use a nice little resource like this!
Who watched the DVD icon for at least 2 turns?
What's this DVD icon? Maybe my ad blocker is blocking it?
It seems they changed the website, it doesn't exist anymore.
I could really use some of these. There’s a video showing what they look like for anyone interested https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUxcMQ4MKK4&pp=ygULRHVtYndhcmUuaW8%3D
I love the idea, the apps look useful and I am stoked to check them out. Can anyone contribute?
Thanks, I really love these
Wow that is dumb.
Love this, bookmarked
