Show HN: I made a convenient file sharing service (NOT A STARTUP) (coldfiles.dev)

Simply upload a file, and it returns a link, get-ing this link gives you the file, no embedding or nonsense like that, so its compatible with anything that understands how to use the http protocol XD. Really i only made this so that i could have a easier time sharing stuff with friends. Its not a startup just a site to make my life easier.

To use it, go to the site, drag or select a file, click upload. Then share the link it provides however you see fit.

Regardless of not having any commercial intent, the difficulty with these things is always going to be the potential legal liability and the maintenance of servers, not the actual software. (Oh, and I guess building trust with users.) Cool that you made it, though.
