What you can build with DumbDrop
DumbDrop is a deliberately minimal file upload application from DumbWare.io, built on the idea that sharing files with a server should not require an account system, an object store, or a cloud subscription. The interface is a single drop zone — drag files in, and they land on disk in a configured upload directory you fully control.
Despite the small surface, DumbDrop ships practical extras like optional PIN protection, directory upload support, configurable size limits, file-extension filtering, and Apprise notifications. Self-hosting on a VPS keeps uploaded files private, removes per-gigabyte transfer fees from third-party services, and gives you a reliable handoff point for collaborators who do not have shell or SFTP access.
Key features of DumbDrop
Drag-and-drop uploads
Drop one file, many files, or a whole folder onto the page and the original directory structure is preserved on disk.
No database required
Uploaded files are written straight to a mounted directory, so backups are a plain folder copy and there is nothing to migrate.
Optional PIN protection
Set a 4-10 digit PIN to restrict uploads on shared servers without standing up a full authentication system.
Apprise notifications
Get notified through any Apprise-supported channel each time a new file lands, with customizable templates for filename, size, and storage usage.
File listing and cleanup
Enable the optional file browser to download or delete uploaded files directly from the web interface without SSH access.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
