I created some desktop software with kotlin multiplatform, which website do you recommend to upload the installers? My website doesn't have enough space for them. I need a free place, if possible, a place where other persons can discover and use the software

the projects are not opensource

You can still use GitHub to host the executables on some dummy repository.
The download links are stable, so you could link directly to them in your website, without users ever seeing the repo.

maybe there is another option not focused on source code but on compiled software distribution?
s
I think this provides the most user-friendly way, direct download, instead of having to go through some service like MediaFire
Unsure, but if there is, there has to be an incentive for them to host your stuff for free, so they probably come with drawbacks
You can also freely host static assets in many JS hosting services (e.g. Cloudflare, Netlify, etc...), but I'm not sure if there's any limitations on size there.
h
You could also put it in OneDrive or Google Drive and create a shared (public) link. But I don't know how much traffic they allow.
p
what about SourceForge?
s
If SourceForge provides stable direct links without quotas, that'll be equally good! If not (and users have to go through sourceforge's website), then holy moly no, their website is such a maze :p
But it's basically the same as using GitHub, you still have to create a repo and then publish releases to it. Same workflow.
