Comment summary: Pixeldrain receives praise for its fast, ad-free, and privacy-focused file sharing service. Users appreciate its generous limits compared to alternatives and the aesthetically pleasing design. Despite positive reviews highlighting ease of use and long file retention, users note areas for improvement, like speed bottlenecks and missing MKV encoding. Criticism includes the 5GB/day limit viewed by some as a strategic cash grab and concerns over pricing discrepancies between plans.

One of the fastest file sharing services I've used recently. Here's hoping it stays up longer than a few years.

If it were not for bottlenecked loading speed, it would be perfect. Too slow for my hosting needs, 1mb pdf took literally minutes to load on the share page.

You can improve the download speed by getting the Pro plan. I do my best to make the site as fast as possible for everyone, but the money has completely run out so I can't get better servers at the moment.

Limit 5 GB/day, after which the speed becomes 1 MB/s. More than enough for me. Navigation and download buttons are also easy to access. Paid subscription available if you want more limits

Pretty damn good file sharing. I don't think it has ads, so that's a plus.

Awesome, free, decent daily limit and they even allow some percentage over that limit within reason.

Cheap offering - at the same being most usually very fast - 82MB/s for an old file (~6 months) and 221MB/s for fresh upload. May vary though - it may be best-case running test from Amsterdam. (For sake of comparison, Mega is ~63MB/s for a comparable file) UI is sleek and very usable - but you need to have a look yourself. I'm a bit puzzled why there is such discrepency in 2 pricing models. I'd switch to it from patreon, had it been the same (or better yet, if it accepted local currencies, with low conversion rates)

There could be more features, but I trust it'll keep on improving, so 5 stars seem fair.
