Send is a file encryption and sharing tool provided by Firefox, which is characterized by end-to-end encryption and sharing of files.

How does it work?

Ffsend can upload and download files. Remote hosts can use Firefox tools or other Web browsers to download files. Neither Firefox Send nor ffsend needs to use Firefox.

It is worth mentioning that ffsend uses client side encryption. This means that the file is encrypted before uploading. There is a key in the link, so be careful when sharing, because anyone with a link can download the file. For additional protection, you can use the following parameters to protect the file with a password:

Although Fedora Send can be used in Firefox without installing anything else, you need to install CLI tools to use ffsend. This tool is in the official warehouse, so you just need to use the dnf command and use sudo.

$sudo dnf install ffsend

After that, you can use ffsend on the terminal.

Upload files

Uploading files is easy.

Downloading a file is as simple as uploading it.

Before downloading, it is useful to check the existence of the file and get information about it. Ffsend provides two convenient commands for this purpose.
