Hi there,
Filerun will stop exisiting as a free version and since I use it like once a month for some small files I was wondering what similar selfhostable and free alternatives are out there that you know.
After a while I found https://github.com/stonith404/pingvin-share/tree/main which does all I need. So if you are still in search of a filerun alternative give Pingvin-share a try.
i read owncloud infinite scale (OCIS) few days ago, i wanted to try it this weekend, and if you’re looking just only file sharing, this might fit for you,
or nextcloud docker / nextcloud install with redis and tuning, and remove the features you don’t need
I was thinking about nextcloud or owncloud, but all I actually need is the fileshare function. This seems a little much overhead for just that. If I won’t find anything I will more or less bite that bullet and use nextcloud, but would love to have a standalone solution. Thanks for the input tho – did not know about OCIS yet, will check it out.

I suspected that was going to happen eventually. Being closed-source is part of the reason I dropped it.
- Filerun
- Worked well while I was using it, not a fan of the closed-source nature and just didn’t feel the need to redeploy when I retooled my infrastructure.
Probably the most direct replacement I can think of is Filebrowser.
Filebrowser? It is awesome, but thats not a cloud, thats just a file browser for your server in a web app
