It's my first post here, so hopefully this is allowed and correct (according to the rules it is). And of course I hope you find some value in it as well :)

I built Vanishfile because I often need to send files that shouldn’t live forever on a server. There wasn't any file sharing I found that could do this (beside secret sharing). I don't want to create an account, share unnecessary amount of details or something.

Vanishfile lets you:

- Share files that automatically delete after expiry (amount of downloads or after set time period)

- Doesn't need an account, I don't store anything besides the file

- Optionally enable client-side encryption, so even the server can’t read the file

- Optionally set a password, so only the user with a password can download the file

- Limit downloads (or make them unlimited)

Free usage is available, and there’s a small one-time unlock for larger files and encryption (currenly set at $3 for 7 days just to try things out). It generates an access code, which expires after a week. So no account required either (but the key should be stored by the user, of course)

This is a small, focused utility and not a startup pitch or something. It's mostly for personal use, but figured to put it out there as well.

I’d love feedback on:

- the UX

- whether the privacy model makes sense

- what more you would expect from a tool like this

- what would be a good free and paid distinction

- what would be a good price, if any
