I never see toffeeshare mentioned. P2P, encrypted, no size limit. Only problem is you can’t send folders, only files, but that’s easily solved with tarballs or RARs.
I think because Syncthing isn’t really for “sharing” files. It can move large files across the internet but it’s not designed for “hey send me a copy of that blu-ray your ripped” sharing.
If your swiss, just use swisstransfer.com. it’s fast, supports up to 50gb of data, 500 transfers per day (and free!), more than you’ll ever need. Although for security, they do say your filles are sent over https, but because they do not promote encryption I suppose they don’t support that (although they do support password protected files).
So yeah, it’s usually more than enough for most use cases, although I’d encrypt my files before sending them if they contain sensitive data, but that’s rarely the case.
But the Pi 5 doesn’t play well with the regular smartphone power adapters. It’s a good thing that I got the official power adapter. You should get one, too.
You just need the right voltage
Edit: that’s just an ad for a raspberry pi cooler.
Yes, you’re right about voltage and amp combined, but the problem is modern phones and their charges don’t generally want to be doing high amps at 5v, they increase their voltage to 9v, 15v or, 20v. Which like you would point out, is not the right voltage.
Personally I just feed 5v in via a ubec like this: …com.au/ubec-dc-dc-step-down-buck-converter-5v-at… since I usually have some kind of 12v battery powered thing going on with mine and lots of 12v ac-dc adapters for bench testing and charging. Lots of ways to power them but it’s definitely not just ‘grab your usb-c charger and it’ll be right’ which can be frustrating for people since it’s almost all other usb-c things will ‘just work’.
Well yeah of course you can. The pi 400 is even an official computer kit turning it into a homecomputer akin to a commdore 64/amiga 500/acorn/bbc micro etc.
That’s a poor analogy given that the Pi 5 & Pi 400 are incomparably more powerful than 1980s home computers, and I don’t think OP was asking if a Pi 5 can run WordPerfect or VisiCalc.
