Do to know any alternative to Quick share.

This might be right for you
Localsend is great!
If you need something that works with just a web browser, try wormhole.app
If wormhole is blocked or not working, use any 'Send'^(github.com↗)^ instance, which is a fork^(github.com↗)^ of Mozilla's Firefox Send^(github.com↗)^.
Those send over WebRTC through the browser, and there's also apps that can tie into the Share menu. You can also self-host it if you want. The data doesn't go through the server, it's peer-to-peer, and only devices on your local network can see each other.
If you long press (mobile) or right-click (desktop) you can send text strings which is great for sending URLs and such between devices.
I could be wrong, but I don't think old school Bluetooth OBEX is even part of AOSP anymore.
I patched Snapdrop to tie into Authelia (uses the display name passed from Authelia instead of a random name) and removed the local network requirement which lets me send files to anyone authorized to use my instance even if they're not on the local network. The Authelia requirement is relaxed on my local network, so if someone is on my wifi, they can just connect and send (it uses the random usernames if there's no auth header).
+1 for Pairdrop. Used it a lot to transfer photos from my phone to my work pc. Works every time.
Yep. Migrating to that from Snapdrop is on my to-do list since Pairdrop natively does the internet sharing I had to patch into Snapdrop. Just one of many things I haven't gotten around to yet.
