Heard about his on the self hosted podcast and just installed it and it works great. Dont use the given compose file just make your own with the linuxserver image. Here’s mine and it works over tailscale and through my reverse proxy.

version: "3"
services:
  snapdrop:
    image: "linuxserver/snapdrop"
    
    volumes:
      - /nasdata/docker/volumes/snapdrop/:/data
    
    ports:
      - "8090:80"
      - "4430:443"

    Also see pairdrop, it is a snapdrop fork that allows connecting devices on different networks using a numeric code and has other improvements.

    I’ve always found snapdrop very very inconsistent. When it works is amazing, but it often as not doesn’t see other devices.

    LocalSend, on the other hand, is excellent. It’s an app so needs to be installed but it available for about every platform desktop and mobile and is my go-to now.

      It’s quite a different use case, it’s meant to facilitate wireless transfer between any device through a browser tab without having to have any local software installed first. So think more like sharing full resolution photo to a friend’s device who is connected to the same wifi as you by just both of you opening the same url, snapdrop.net or pairdrop.net (fork with more features) or your own selfhosted url.
