This is not a Peer-to-Peer connection. Files get uploaded first from the source, then downloaded by the receiver. This means that the files get uploaded on a server and then the extension on the receiving end fetches the data from that server.

didnt work the first time but was able to get it to work when doing sender/receiver on the second attempt when I was able to get the + on both browsers to drag and drop files. Works well on everything I connect to. Tested on a iMac transfer to my windows laptop and also my steam deck in desktop mode to my legion go to copy large files over.
