SnapDrop and a bunch of other P2P services acquired by a cryptocurrency scam company

"LimeWire GmbH", a company that sells NFTs and "AI" under the name of the deceased P2P file-sharing software, decided to aggressively acquire a lot of independent P2P file-sharing websites.

I am very used to recommending snapdrop [dot] net whenever anyone seeks a wireless P2P transfer between multiple devices. It was a browser app that would establish a direct connection between devices on the same network by the shortest path (the local network) to transfer files or text.

Today, when recommending the website yet another time, I found out it was put into a uBlock filter, and this is how I learned the website was sold.

From this GitHub issue, I also learned that a few other similar services were bought out, so the list of services to avoid (probably incomplete) is:
sharedrop [dot] net
sharedrop [dot] io
file [dot] io

Users also report that the code of the services was covertly changed to always use transfer through LimeWire's "cloud", with no P2P functionality.

The current best alternative to this service seems to be the pairdrop.net fork, that also has some UX improvements.
