 @ada Another one in the same vain: You have a small handheld device you take photos with while out and about. You meet up with a group of friends, suddenly a second device with a giant monitor appears. So cool, you just wanted to show your friends some photos! Wouldn't it be mindblowing if you could show them a couple of the photos you took with the small device on the big screen? It's 2022 and it's still a complete pain to do this (and I do know why but it still frustrated me). 10 comments
@jfml one that's annoying I meet my friend at a coffee shop she wants to send me a 1GB file, we have a USB-C cable that can connect the two laptops together. So she uploads the 1GB file to a website and sends me a URL @ada Oh, just imagine if that would work! Amazing! I still remember this app that wanted to do file transfer via sound, super cool idea but I don't know if they ever got it to work. And I can't find it now … Oh right, in the end they obviously only used sound to magically connect to a server that then did the file transfers +___+ @jfml a neater solution would be to use the sound to do offline signaling and then connect p2p with WebRTC  So you want to share files between two devices? Where's the money in that? I just can't imagine, how that would work economically. /frustrated |
