let’s just assume thatI know what security risks are.
now let’s follow you idea- so what would be first step? I need to keep running whole instance of nextcloud for a few minutes where I transfer data. what would be the URL I need to access on remote machine? If it some domain with additional parameters in it - I’m trying it, and even if I do…, do I need to TYPE my username and password then? I don’t remember when I lost time type my password somewhere… not to mention that usually systems have some weird keyboard layout and I’m spending hours finding & sign on it :/ not ideal at all

many times I find myself in situations where I’m on some computer which is totally isolated - friends computer, completely newly installed (VM), some corporate remote desktop where I can’t install anything — and I need to transfer some information to this computer.
Ideally what I would have is:
- some sort of web chat
- self hosted (so that I can spin it up only when I need it, and that I can “destroy” all the data after each session)
- simple URL where you specify a room name edit it (eg.: domain.com/qck-321)
- on open you specify username (no other authentication)
- first person who joins needs to confirm all the others (so people can’t just “drop in”)
- no fancy technology (web sockets,…)
what I found so far:
- https://tlk.io/ - quite close but not all points
- https://chitchatter.im/ - this one is quite promising but unfortunately it failed me on first windows remote machine (probably due to some firewall rule)
I’m more that prepared to develop something my self but first I would like to check if there is really nothing out there to solve this.
Bonus question- do you have any other approach - how do you transfer (potentially sensitive) information to a “isolated” machine?

Problem: I scroll on lemmy, I talk to friends, I see some interesting page, project, funny meme or something else.
(when I was on reddit i pressed SAVE, when I was on Instagram I pressed PIN (or something) and now I’m stuck with (uncategorised) information all over the place.
My current idea is: push everything to Telegram group where my bot listens, take the URL, maybe even extract some data and save it somewhere. 90% of my input will be over the phone but here and there also PC.
Any suggestions for self-hosted service to dump data in our (even better) to even skip whole bot part altogether?
UPDATE: Maybe I was a bit unclear. I want to "save" URLs and also somehow tag/categorize them. So I think plain bookmarks won't cut it, also flow is important (on mobile), switching copy/paste is to much hassle.
wooow nice - first relevant answer! thx
