MODERATORS
I've been using https://wormhole.app/ for file transfers over discord/text. The link is only good for 24 hours, but it supports up to 10 gb files.
How is this sustainable for the people hosting this? This almost seems too good to be true.
Well, how much content is anyone gonna upload just for 24h? Unless DDoS is the goal.
Well, if only a thousand max-sized files get uploaded in one day (from people using it), that's 10 terrabytes of storage needed. It's very generous to run this for free (considering the power and bandwidth required for such a service).
Bandwidth isn't a concern if you get an unmetered line, and 10TB storage is only about $250. I would imagine they make decent money from tech, and find the service very convenient personally.
Bandwidth is very much a concern, I’ll think they of course have multiple 1Gb/s and 10Gb/s NICs however those can also be capped if too many people download the files at the same time. I’ve had a small file hosting service and it capped out my 1Gb/s connection pretty easily after a while. Had to upgrade on 10Gb NICs and it still overloaded them after a few weeks, now who is going to pay for that even if the bandwidth is unmetered.
