Heard about his on the self hosted podcast and just installed it and it works great. Dont use the given compose file just make your own with the linuxserver image. Here’s mine and it works over tailscale and through my reverse proxy.

version: "3"
services:
  snapdrop:
    image: "linuxserver/snapdrop"
    
    volumes:
      - /nasdata/docker/volumes/snapdrop/:/data
    
    ports:
      - "8090:80"
      - "4430:443"

I actually like PairDrop better, as it allows also linking devices that fail to find themselves on the network (for example if you run it behind a reverse proxy). It is obviously pretty similar though.

How would one securely host this via reverse proxy so bots don’t bring it down?

I put things behind traefik and authelia if they don’t have their own authentication. But anthing that the reverse proxy can offer would work I guess (like BasicAuth middleware on traefik)

This seems similar to KDE Connect? Am i missing something?

It’s quite a different use case, it’s meant to facilitate wireless transfer between any device through a browser tab without having to have any local software installed first. So think more like sharing full resolution photo to a friend’s device who is connected to the same wifi as you by just both of you opening the same url, snapdrop.net or pairdrop.net (fork with more features) or your own selfhosted url.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing.
