If you need to send large files to someone, you can use Firefox Send:

https://send.firefox.com/

The file is encrypted, the urls are expiring, it costs nothing.

I've used wetransfer for files up to 2GB (https://wetransfer.com). If you need more they have a very reasonable $12/mo pro plan that gives up to 20GB per transfer and options for password protection etc.
Re:Dropbox Transfer by brianbreslin on Thursday December 26, 2019 @09:45AM (#21884113)
This is limited to 1GB. Dropbox is limited to 100GB file size.

That's their pro version. Free is limited to 100MB

Given that we hit a file size limit with the paid version of Box at the work the other day, this is welcome news.

It's 2.5 GB if you log in. For anything I share, that's plenty.

I'd not heard of FF Send before this comment, and will now make use of it, so I think your comment is a bit misguided.

So? Are we not allowed to suggest alternatives? Let the customer choose and stop doing it for them. Especially by censoring.

Hey, easy there :) Nothing wrong with linking to an alternative.

>It is premium.

What you consider premium, I consider a rip off.

"You should treat other businesses with respect" no business deserves respect. a business is not a person. a business does not have human rights, nor human needs. a business is a social construct, deserving of about as much respect as, say, the concept of a deity, or a work of fiction.
Re:Dropbox Transfer by pengstrom on Thursday December 26, 2019 @09:17AM (#21883912)
I'm not sure I follow your reasoning. Are you saying that suggesting a relevant and free alternative by a non-profit is disrespectful towards Dropbox, and should not be allowed?
