How to Send Large Files on Stack Exchange

Bypass the 2MB limit

The Problem: Stack Exchange's File Size Limit

Stack Exchange limits file sharing to 2MB (2MB for images only).

With 100 million users, Stack Exchange is one of the most popular platforms for communication. But when you need to share large files like videos, high-resolution photos, presentations, or project files, you hit that frustrating size limit.

The Solution: Use SendFiles.Online

Instead of trying to compress or split your files, use SendFiles.Online to share files up to 3GB for free. You upload the files to our server, get a download link, and share that link on Stack Exchange. Your recipient clicks the link and downloads directly.

  • 3GB free transfers - much larger than Stack Exchange's 2MB limit
  • No account required - for you or your recipient
  • 7-day availability - plenty of time to download
  • Password protection - optional extra security
  • Works on any device - desktop, mobile, tablet
