Products that do what GetPost – "Self-hostable" pastebin that runs free on CF Workers does
I built GetPost because I miss the simplicity of just SCPing files to a personal server, but I do not miss the maintenance burden. It's a pastebin/imagebin that runs on Cloudflare Workers with zero ongoing costs and zero maintenance. Key features: - Deploy in 5 minutes, runs free forever (100k reads, 1k uploads daily on CF free tier) - No complex toolchain - no NPM, no wrangler - just curl, python3, and a simple build script - Handles text, markdown (server-rendered), images, any file type up to 10MB - ULID-based access control with separate delete keys An interesting technical bit:…

I'm sure folks here have seen pastebins a thousand times. There's no innovation left in this space – and that's kind of the point. When I wanted to self-host a pastebin, every option I found was too much. Git-based version control, OAuth, elaborate admin panels. I just wanted something I could deploy in under a minute with a CLI that actually works. So I built pbnj (yes, like the sandwich). What it is: - A minimal, beautiful pastebin with syntax highlighting for 100+ languages - One-click deploy to Cloudflare (free tier gives you ~100,000 pastes) - CLI-first: pbnj file.py → get a URL, copied…

Inspired by the recent justfuckingusetailwind.com, I built a similar "love letter" to the Cloudflare ecosystem. I find myself reaching for Workers, R2, D1, and KV for almost every project lately, so I wanted to capture that sentiment in a single, slightly over-the-top page. It’s a simple side project, but the stack is: - Vite + TypeScript - Biome + Ultracite - Deployed (obviously) on Cloudflare First draft in Claude, the copy was drafted with Grok to get that specific tone, then I used Google's AI Studio to accelerate the build with touch up's in Cursor. Link:…

ohai! I've released Lightwhale 3, which is possibly the easiest way to self-host Docker containers. It's a free, immutable Linux system purpose-built to live-boot straight into a working Docker Engine, thereby shortcutting the need for installation, configuration, and maintenance. Its simple design makes it easy to learn, and its low memory footprint should make it especially attractive during these times of RAMageddon. If this has piqued your interest, do check it out, along with its easy-to-follow Getting Started guide. In any event, have a nice day! =)

Chunk co-founder here. We spent the last 2 weeks building this to scratch our own itch: As developers, we often have problems that could be solved just by running a few lines of code. Sometimes, running this code on your local machine is fine. But other time, the code need to run automatically reacting to external events or to run continuously, which means, it needs to run on a server somewhere. So now, you have to find a cloud provider, to package or build the code and finally to deploy it. All of that for what could be literally be 4 lines of code. We couldn’t find an easier way to do…

I've decided to bite the bullet and release Bitbox.co and get some feedback. I've been coding for years and one of the things I constantly see companies do is write and rewrite a document storage system, so I decided to write one for them. Bitbox.co uses cloud storage (currently Azure) to store documents but can be coded to use any cloud service. Documents can be public or private and URLs to that document can be used directly in HTML. There are currently a list of WebAPIs for developers to use as a tool, or build an entire system around. This is an MVP and it's simple. Upload a file, get a…

For the last month or so I've been working on bewCloud, and today I'm making its source code public and open! Right now, the Dashboard (URLs + freeform notes), News (RSS/Atom/JSON feeds), and Contacts (CardDav) are working. If you have any suggestions, comments, or recommendations, I'd love to hear it. Thank you for your attention and kindness. I really appreciate it!

Hey developers I think we're tired of copying and pasting our codes and sharing links using PasteBin, GithubGist, or Slack. What if you could share the codes without copying the link and share them right from your favorite editor? That was the motivation for creating TurboGist. Right now, it's still in the MVP stage, and I'm trying to gather feedback from developers like you. It's available as a beta in the VS Code Extension store. Can you guys check this out? It'd help me a lot. You don't need to pay any penny, 100% FREE. However, I'm working on introducing a self-hosted feature. Besides, a…

I made a simple site that allows you to upload files. It requires no sign up and 100% free. The biggest advantage is that it returns you the direct URL to your file. So you can use it to store images for MD-based forum posts. Or put in your site's . I use the Cloudflare R2 storage which offers zero egress fees. So I pay $0 of transfer costs. I added a simple anti-nsfw files check and a simple anti-malware check. Please do not try to break it. Thanks! (>‿◠)

I've been self-hosting https://privatebin.net for a long time now but there were some annoying issues: no way to turn off encryption, API is complicated, no raw support on the page directly and worst of all: no keyboard shortcuts. I've looked at a bunch of other OSS solutions and all of them (atleast the ones I could find) didn't really have all the features that I needed. So I made this. Optional E2E encryption with optional password protection, keyboard shortcuts (kinda a WIP), simple-ish REST-ish API for making CLIs, direct raw file display & download (with optional server-side…

So I'm a junior Go dev and I made a small site that allows me to share images with someone privately and securely, and give me control over how many times the private link can be shared and how long the image will be accessible for. There are similar services to this one, but they are either convoluted with ads, or require sign-up, or expect you to fill out a survey or something. picburn is small, safe, and has no interest (nor the code or the server space) for storing your uploads. give it a try if it fits your usecase and let me know what you think. Note: there was a typo in the url

I've created a quick application that stores data in IPFS (http://ipfs.io) which is a distributed web implementation. It's working as expected, paste some content, get a hash in the url and send to a friend. The content will be there forever and distributed to peers that asks for it. Demo: http://ipfsbin.xyz/#QmXdMvJaRrSTCAcDFMZLUFfm9uGK6Wq7qEVcwbvaQRxq8x This have a couple of advantages, mainly that the same content would have the same hash, meaning that things wouldn't be duplicated. Source is available for people interested in that here:…

I spent the past few weeks making an open source cloud code editing environment with an AI copilot and multiplayer collaboration! It's fully self-hostable in 5-10 minutes. There's a lot of minor improvements to be made, and some are already listed in the Github issues. Let me know what you think and feel free to try it out.

Hi! I am sharing this because it may be useful to others. I created a simple Docker image that lets you easily expose a web app running locally on your dev machine to the Internet, via a proxy server. It is a self hosted alternative to something like Ngrok, which is a paid service if you use custom domains. A small server is cheaper than Ngrok (I use Hetzner Cloud and the cheapest server costs me 3€ per month). I use this method in particular to test HTTP verification with Let's Encrypt for a SaaS app running on my Mac. Hope this is useful :) Code:…

Hey we are launching Docs.dev, a full feature docs product that lets you host your developer docs on Cloudflare in a couple minutes. Why this exists: We don’t think every early stage startup should need to pay $300-$500 a month for beautiful docs, in fact every startup should just have beautiful human and agent ready docs ready to go. Additionally the workflow for docs is a lot different now in that Claude Code or Codex will generate 60-80% of the code, so why not have them update your docs as well. After they generate the docs, the missing piece is there will be some sentences, sections,…

Sup HN I'm MX, a solo founder building Infuze Cloud, launching as a beta today. I started this project because I was tired of a long list of reasons why the cartels are ridiculous that I shall not dwell on for too long here because I had to rewrite this twice cause of hitting the character limit So I decided to try building something I’d want to use. The whole stack is built custom from the ground up with no external dependencies or costs to third parties apart from hardware and IP space. What Infuze is: Raw, dedicated performance: 1 vCPU = 1 physical thread. No overcommit. I cap my nodes…

Shmauthor here. Built this for myself, putting it out in case it's useful. Needed any URL as clean Markdown for LLM context — including Cloudflare/anti-bot sites. curl gets HTTP 403 on those, raw HTML is 80%+ nav noise eating context, paid SaaS (Firecrawl, Jina) wasn't an option for me. It's a Docker wrapper around two existing OSS tools — CloakBrowser (stealth Chromium that passes Cloudflare) and rs-trafilatura (HTML → Markdown). No new scraper, just glue. Runs locally, my URLs stay on my box Token reduction (raw curl HTML vs snitchmd, tiktoken cl100k_base): -…
