Hi Product Hunt! 👋
I’m the creator of FileBottle. I built this project because I missed the unpredictable and slightly chaotic vibe of the early internet. Remember the days when you could stumble upon something completely random and anonymous?
I wanted to recreate that feeling using Telegram. The logic is simple: it’s a fair trade. To get a file from the 'ocean', you have to throw one in first.
Why try it?
No accounts, no tracking.
Metadata is automatically stripped for privacy.
ou never know what you’ll find: a useful script, a cool photo, or a weird meme.
I built this purely for fun (and to practice some asynchronous Python with aiogram). I’d love to hear your thoughts! What’s the weirdest or coolest thing you’ve found in a bottle so far?
I'll be here all day to answer your questions! 🚀
