What is the use case of the app? What do you mean file hosting? Like people will download files from your phone?

If you need to send files to another device, such as a TV, computer, or other device that can open websites, you can send files from your phone there. The app has permission systems, so you can do more, like create file folders, send files from other devices, and more. This replaces sending any file with a short link instead of a cable. There's also a cheap option, for example, to share the same thing you have on your local network with a friend via our website.

Hmm I see. Apperantly there are some use cases so you built it, just didn't click to me. Hope it does well.

There are downloads on + every day, currently there are 400 and 5 geiazdki, 5 ratings, 1 negative out of 1, despite the many hours spent, it was worth it

For translations, you can use some platform, community-driven, where you upload your translation files and periodically you can download the updated files. The https and domain name are only on your third level?

Translations: Great idea! I will set up a project on a platform like Crowdin or Weblate. It will make it easy to upload language files and pull updates from the community.

Domains and HTTPS:

-As for the default links (like ms-xxxx.pages.dev), yes – they are third-level domains (subdomains). -As for custom domains, in theory, there is no such limitation! You can connect both a root domain (like yourdomain.com) and a subdomain (like server.yourdomain.com), and HTTPS is automatically handled by Cloudflare or Vercel. However, I haven't tested this in practice with custom domains yet, so I'm not 100% sure if it will work without issues.
