We are open for offers to both transfer.sh (file sharing with curl) and SlackArchive.io (archiving +700 teams, data will be of interest for machine learning and NLP startups.). Both are side projects that grew far too big. Mail me at remco@dutchcoders.io for more info.
It seems comparable, though we are supporting different languages. Plans are to support a lot more languages, and support private repos also. (Actually they are already supported, but linthubot needs to have read only access to the repository). All feedback is welcome.
Currently no plans for charging. If we'll change these plans, existing repositories will stay free. Send an email to support@linthub.io for the error, and we'll check it immediatly.
Right you are! We will implement a page in between depending on the referer. Direct download users won't have any issues, but to prevent abuse the page will be shown if from an other site.
I'd personally love a website that offered self-destructing url pointers or downloads. So, a url that redirects once to the target, that sort of thing.
You might not want to be too strict about it. I know I'll sometimes look at an attachment on the go, but not be able to download it until later when I'm at home.
