FileShot.io – AES-256 encrypted file sharing for devs sharing configs and snippets #586

@FileShot

Description

@FileShot

Wanted to flag FileShot.io as a tool that might resonate with Emacs users who share configs, init files, or dotfile snippets with others.

It's a browser-side encrypted file sharing tool — files are encrypted with AES-256-GCM locally before upload, and the decryption key lives only in the URL fragment (never sent to the server). Completely zero-knowledge.

Use cases that fit the Emacs community well:

  • Share your init.el or config snippets without worrying about them being indexed or stored in plaintext
  • Quick encrypted transfers between machines when setting up a new environment
  • No account required, no tracking

Open source MIT licensed: https://github.com/FileShot/FileShotZKE

Could fit under a "Privacy Tools" or "Utilities" section if one exists or is added.
