I actually have switched to Localsend from Pairdrop. My experience is that is Pairdrop is slow especially compared to Localsend. This is while hosting the application on my local network.
I do prefer the WebApp approach so I don't have to install something on each machine before sharing files, but the bug ticket in Pairdrop does not make me hopeful for a good solution (see: https://github.com/schlagmichdoch/PairDrop/issues/44)
Are you able to achieve similar performance in Pairdrop that you did with Localsend?
I haven't compared performance, as it's not a bottleneck for me. A 70mb file took a few seconds. Localsend could very well be faster, being a native app.
