Seem to be quite a few of these types of apps, I've been using landrop recently, how does this one compare?
I have not used Landrop but looking at it from the outside, Landrop is version 0.4 and has received no development for 3 years now. LocalSend is past 1.0 and still in active development. I'd rather use LocalSend then instead of something abandoned before it was deemed complete.
I was using landrop before. Works fine but the GUI was just a bit off, not intuitive enough. That's Localsend's biggest improvement IMO.
Thanks, this tends to be functionality I dont need that often but when I do it's frustratingly difficult finding something that doesnt feel like it's going to need me to sign over my soul so it's good to know about other open source solutions.
