File hosting and sharing lists services for uploading, storing and sending files, plus the tools that manage them. Entries include cloud storage platforms, one-off transfer sites, self-hosted servers, and utilities for syncing or cleaning up large folders. The things to compare are the free storage limit, how long a link stays live, whether files are encrypted and who can open a share. Some listings suit teams, and others work for one person sending a big file. Storage limits and retention periods vary a lot, so read the provider's terms before uploading anything sensitive.
