Dropgate Server

Self-hosted, privacy-first file sharing with hosted upload and P2P

File Sync & Storage ★ 16 stars Easy setup free

**Dropgate** is a modern, privacy-respecting file sharing system designed to be easy to self-host and easy to use. Dropgate supports **two ways to transfer files**: - **Hosted upload (classic mode)** — you upload to your server, share a link, and the server holds the file temporarily. - **Direct transfer (P2P)** — the file can move device-to-device, with the server only helping peers find each other. In today's world, privacy and anonymity are more important than ever. Dropgate was built to make **secure file sharing accessible**, **transparent**, and **fully self-hostable** — whether on a hom.
