(Updated the list based on comments. Only keeping p2p tools)

I have been researching some of these and my concern is that for the majority of people just wanting to transfer random files between friends (which I define as being behind symmetrical NAT on both sides), practically none of these solutions actually work at all. There would need to be something like a TURN server defined, which there are no reliable free ones, and these sites do not make it easy to supply your own. The majority of these p2p solutions use WebRTC in some way (that includes WebTorrent), which in most cases only have free public STUN servers defined, not TURN, which isn't enough.

A quick google turned this up https://www.metered.ca/tools/openrelay/ There might be some p2p tools out there that are using this.
