Often we want to share what we have with our friends, relatives or just acquaintances. Mail servers have a limitation on the size of a file for transferring, and here free file sharing services come to our aid, accepting files of a certain size for storage. Of course, when uploading very large files, we have to pay, but if you split the file into several archives, you can use them for free and efficiently.
