How are you sharing files between two party, with which system, app, site, etc.

I want to share some PDF with a friend but I’m becoming really tired of the old Google Drive. So any option is appreciated.

Also I’m finding myself always in the need to share a PDF or a file with an anonymous lemmy user if your option could work in this situation that will be great

An XMPP server. Users with local accounts (long time friends) have almost no restrictions on what can be sent, file size, etc. We have private groups set up, dms, public rooms, etc, more or less like discord. After trying many of the popular chatting and file sharing platforms XMPP seems to be the one that works best for the most people on the most platforms within our group. YMMV.
