“move fast and break things” almost killed our startup on arrival

It doesn't mean ship untested crap, it means don't let fear of breaking something prevent you from making progress.

&quot;It&#x27;s practically stupid to start another File Transfer Service in 2019&quot;. That was what almost all my friends said when I told them about MiDrive Transfer.<p>I decided to build it because I was frustrated with using other services. I felt a little more latitude should be given to the basic users.<p>2 months after the thought, I launched MiDrive Transfer (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;transfer.midrive.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;transfer.midrive.io</a>). Transfer large files for free. Full featured include<p>Free for all to use.<p>Doesn&#x27;t require you to sign-up<p>No ads<p>Up to 10GB file size for free (compared to 2GB for other platforms)<p>30 days expiry date (compared to 7 days for other platforms)<p>Simple and responsive<p>Everything that added up as a premium feature on other platforms was simply free. e.g. Password Protection.

So what&#x27;s different to say yousendit?<p>I miss the option to share via link instead of by mail. I&#x27;d even argue that a link to copy and a few share-buttons of which email is just one might work best today (though heavy files might be more desktop focused after all, so I&#x27;m not 100% sure. Easy to track once built though.).

It probably means different things to different people. Perhaps useful on a website where you upload funny images of yourself and friends. But not a good idea for anything else.

<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;trasfer.midrive.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;trasfer.midrive.io&#x2F;</a> gives me a &quot;server not found&quot;

In my opinion, &quot;move fast and break things&quot; turned out to be one of the more corrosive and harmful philosophies to come out of SV.
