For local network sharing between my devices I tend to use LocalSend [0] which is absolutely brilliant, pretty much replaced my USB stick for transferring files/folders between devices on the same network.

It’s really a delightful piece of software. Came to the comments just to mention it, definitely recommended
I opened the landing page on Safari on M1 Mac and found out it was using 25% GPU one hour later…
That's really cool. Tailscale has a built in local send function that works brilliantly too.
I love Snapdrop [0] for that use case, since it doesn't require downloading/installing an app.

I like localsend too. But for some reasons I need to disconnect from tailscale in order for it to work properly.
