File collecting program? (sh.itjust.works)

I find myself often having to transfer a random files from another person's device to mine. Existing file sharing solutions aren't exactly ideal because they either require me to remember a very long URL (file shares), or requiring me to log in on others' device (cloud). I'm wondering if there's a program where anyone can upload files, but can only be viewed and downloaded from the server by authenticated users. I understand it's not wise to accept files from unauthenticated users, but it would be so damn convenient. If there isn't one, I suppose that would be my next project.

I'll have to see if it works in my environment, but otherwise it looks cool! Thank you.

Certainly!

I've never used this one, but it could also work for you.
