In this video, we talk about Erugo, a self-hosted file-sharing solution that gives you all the benefits of services like WeTransfer but without the ads and marketing that can be a bit intrusive. If you've been frustrated with file-sharing platforms turning into advertising hubs, you'll appreciate Erugo's simple, clean design and functionality. The creator of this tool, Dean Ward, offers a more straightforward approach, allowing you to easily send files and folders without worrying about constant ads or limitations on file sizes and transfers.

We take a deep dive into Erugo’s features, starting with a look at its basic dashboard. You’ll see how you can add files and folders, customize the platform to fit your style, and manage your account settings. We also touch on the user management aspect, which is unique in that it requires admin approval to add users to the platform—a nice feature for those concerned about security and privacy.

Erugo is still in its early development stage (version 0.0.005 at the time of recording), so keep that in mind as some features may evolve. We also explore the GitHub repository, where you can easily install Erugo via Docker, and discuss how this self-hosted solution stands out compared to other file-sharing options. If you’re into self-hosting or looking for a simple way to manage your file transfers privately, Erugo might just be the perfect solution for you!
