I've been using this app for about a year now and I've loved from the very first time I used it to send a file. You can link your phone or laptop or any compatible device for fast and easy inter-device sharing. Add friends to send them stuff when chat programs have unreasonable size limits.
It's free and incredible. It's blazing fast too! I don't know how exactly their protocol layers work, but it feels like it sends things with zero overhead and basically is immune to ping lag. I have a...

Very convenient, very fast, works on all operating systems. With Blip, I forgot about AirDrop
Requires registration and their privacy policy is alarming:
Your IP address

Browser settings
Date and time stamps of your usage
Pages and files viewed
Search history
Actions taken during the use of the services (like features used)
Device Data:
Information about the computer, phone, tablet, or other devices you use to access the services. This may include data like your IP address or proxy server, device and application identification numbers, browser type, hardware model, and operating system.
Internet or other similar network activity:
Details of your interactions with the service's websites, applications, or advertisements
Update: they seem to have removed it from their privacy policy page without informing customers, so I'd be careful.
Setup was only the name you want to use and an email. I didn't notice the privacy rules, but it did take note of the computer brand as an identifier
I mean removing privacy policy is pretty bad but the basic info like that is collected even by apache logs.

It's free and incredible. It's blazing fast too! I don't know how exactly their protocol layers work, but it feels like it sends things with zero overhead and basically is immune to ping lag. I have a 1Gbps internet connection and my friend has 300Mbps and she was able to receive things on her end at the full 300Mbps capability of her connection.
Yeah, I'm definitely nerding out over here and could glaze it further (lol) but it's simply the best option if you're looking for a file transfer app for almost any reason.
Would be nice if it had a watch folder feature. That'd be cool. Set folders for it to monitor and auto-send whatever gets put in them to any specified device. Not sure if they'd be interested in doing that but I'm sure more than just me would use something like that. Would be great for auto-sending pics from phone to PC without having to tinker and a dozen other purposes. Also, the sign-in process is kinda unique and weird, but I'm sure there's a reason behind it. Anonymity perhaps?
Anyway, just grab it and give it a try :) You won't regret it.
It's consistent, doesn't need setting up after initial installation, works with multiple devices/people without faff, no limit on file size, completely inobtrusive, and simply does what it advertises, does it damn well, and doesn't have any other bloat or try to sell extra features. Oh , and it's completely free.
Very fast, smooth, slick, responsive native apps. Beautiful light & dark mode. Dead simple to use. It's cross platform.
Registration only requires email. No passwords, no real name, nothing else. The app just send you a login code to your email. They'll have you set up a display name, so your friends can send files to you, but you can turn that off.
It's absolutely free with no limits for personal use. Instantly fell in love.
This is a native app. No clunky & resource hogging Electron webapp here which is a very pleasant surprise for desktop apps these days, and it looks absolutely gorgeous too, fits right in as a Windows app, which is so rare these days. It's super slick & responsive. After using this, I can say that this is a quality app. What more can I say? Just a great app. Instant heart,
So far, so good. Fast :-) Google Drive uploading was seeming too slow. Blip is looking good.
