WeTransfer vs copyparty

Fit:

Migration notes

Replace selected browser send/download workflows with own server and password-protected expiring share links, optionally allowing recipient uploads. up2k resumes chunked uploads. Existing WeTransfer links/accounts do not migrate automatically; re-upload files and issue new links. Operator owns capacity and service availability.

What you may give up

No paid-feature limits established for this edition.

  • Operator supplies storage, bandwidth, reachable server, TLS and maintenance; no managed delivery network or SLA established.

Tier A: MIT self-operated server; README documents browser uploads, permissions and sharing without a paid edition or license gate. No official managed hosting offer identified; linked read-only demo is not hosting. License source

What running it takes

  • Jinja2

Hover or focus an icon for its name. Dashed means not established; struck through means no; grouped icons are alternatives.

SFX bundles Jinja2; Windows executable embeds Python. No separate SQL/Redis/queue needed for basic server. Optional media/protocol packages are feature-dependent. Infrastructure and staff time are not priced here; this page does not compare total cost.
