The file.pizza one doesn't look like it's peer-to-peer. You upload a file to their server, and then they provide a download URL you can share. Kind of the opposite of peer-to-peer. I would expect a "P2P" file transfer product to not require any intermediate storage besides the sharing user's and the recipients'.



It is peer-to-peer, via WebRTC. It says right there on the homepage, when you start a connection, and on the FAQ.


Oh, nice! Totally missed that.
