Description

Why I am making the suggestion

I went to use FramaDrop from the link under the "Worth mentioning" banner within the "File Sharing" section and the website says that FramaDrop no longer exists.

My connection with the software

I was a potential user of FramaDrop and nothing else.

  • I will keep the issue up-to-date if something I have said changes or I remember a connection with the software.

It's not really down, it's just that FramaDrop doesn't offer the service themselves anymore, but community-hosted instances ("chatons") are still up and running and when you go to FramaDrop they list these instances. That's part of FramaDrop's plan to decentralize some services.

I searched if there is another "central" instance of LuFi but it seems not, so this link remains the best one since it lists instances.

Hi Irq3000

I now understand. I thought they were completely different services and not just instances.

I agree with you that keeping the link is definitely best.

In fact I just found that by default Framadrop redirects to a french page by default, so I understand your confusion. I made a PR to link to the english page by default, this should avoid any confusion.
