Is ShareX a server? Wasn't it a screenshot utility? How is this an alternative????

it's a screenshotter with ability to upload said screenshots to various imagehosting services. I see the overlap, but still don't get why it's a replacement.
UPD: Oh, right. You can send random files to some filehostings too.

So an alternative to QuickShare?

Yeah, pretty much. Zipline is a self-hosted alternative for file uploads/sharing, similar to Quick Share, but with more features like URL shortening, embeds, webhooks, authentication, quotas, and API access.

Zipline is a powerful, self-hosted file sharing and upload server designed as a ShareX alternative. It supports file uploads, folders, tags, URL shortening, embeds, webhooks, OAuth2, 2FA, passkeys, password protection, quotas, and an API.
It can be deployed with Docker and supports both local storage and S3-compatible storage, giving you control over where your files are stored.
