This doesn’t run on iOS.

I use Destiny, which is magic-wormhole for iOS:

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/destiny-secure-file-transfer/i...

https://github.com/LeastAuthority/destiny

Unfortunately it uses different mailbox URLs from magic wormhole, so it isn’t compatible with those clients.



Has anyone attempted to combine all of these desperate open source p2p file sharing solutions into a single app?

Like, if any time someone mained one of these systems, you could assume you had it. Even do discovery for everything at once on the receive side, and if both of you have the omni-sender thing just pick what protocol to send it over.


It is compatible, you just have to configure the other client to use the same servers.

For example, to use the "wormhole" Python CLI with Destiny, you can do this:

wormhole --relay-url wss://mailbox.mw.leastauthority.com/v1 --transit-helper tcp:relay.mw.leastauthority.com:4001 send README.rst

Then, the code it prints out can be consumed by a Destiny (or https://winden.app ) client.
