LocalSend. Share files between all devices on your home network. Free and Open Source. [View all]
I rediscovered this today. I've been bonkers busy reorganizing for the new year, reading books, taking notes ...
I have been using all Apple gear lately, so no need for cross-platform stuff recently. (though airdrop gives me grief at times. Spare you the details)
Windows, Linux, Android, MacOS, ios.
This ought to work!! Free, And on the Apple App store, it's optional donation-ware.
So, try it if you like. Gripes to the developer, not me! But I really hope it helps you move files around without going outside your home, where who knows what goes on.

Caveat: It looks like the app needs to be running on devices you want to share files with (it doesn't run in the background) They won't show. Where do files go? You can change the download directory on a mac, and files go to a LocalSend folder in Files app on ios. Others? Left to reader.
I previously bought PhotoSync to share photos across all systems, including friends using windows.
