I'm assuming the file will remain "alive" while it is downloading, right? So after you share it and the download starts, the receiver can take, say, 2 hours to download the file?
I just copied a couple of files there. In the browser window where I copied them, it correctly showed the sizes as 8 kbytes and 63 kbytes. When I re-open the same page, it shows them as "8 bytes" and "63 bytes". They download correctly.
Is there a way to copy files other than drag-and-drop? That's not always convenient, and in some environments might not be possible. (As hanniabu points out, clicking on the drop zone opens a file selection dialog, so never mind.)
I normally use wetransfer.com for this purpose. I'm wondering what makes this solution better (it is certainly not the size of the availability time-window :)
I noticed that AWS Lambda increased the maximum function timeout (from one minute) to five minutes.
Maybe that'd make it a good platform for (something like) 5MinuteStorage. Store a file only in memory, allow a specified number of downloads within five minutes.
Very cool. I have been looking for ways to easily move small data between my machines. (I have Syncthing setup between machines, but it's a bit cumbersome when I just want push a file or two.)
Nope! I'm the guy behind 10MinuteMail.com. But this looks super cool! Glad to see the trend for ephemeral services:) Would be happy to cross promote with links though if the creator is interested.

Handy!
