This is really excellent work — congrats! I previously used upspin to securely move files between devices on my network, but I really love the simplicity and ease of use that taildrop now provides.

To give a concrete example, I had been dragging my feet on moving some old but useful keys/tokens between my Windows desktop and MacBook — using taildrop, the transfer was both easy and virtually instantaneous.

Historically, it's always been such a pain to either have to upload/download the file(s) from a cloud service (what if I need to move private keys? that adds another layer of complexity/annoyance because then I need to encrypt them) or find a usb drive, plug it in, copy the files, eject, find the adapter for my macbook, plug it in, copy the files, eject, etc. Taildrop completely fixes all of that — it's amazing!
