    Pastebin clone on top of IPFS▲15

    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:…

    Pbnj – A minimal, self-hosted pastebin you can deploy in 60 seconds▲69

    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…

    Stasher – Burn-after-read secrets from the CLI, no server, no trust▲72

    Stasher is a tiny CLI tool that lets you share encrypted secrets that burn after reading — no accounts, no logins, no servers to trust. I built it because I just wanted to share a password. Not spin up infra. Not register for some "secure" web app. Not trust Slack threads. Just send a secret. Secrets are encrypted client-side with AES-256-GCM. You get a `uuid:key` token to share. Once someone reads it, it's gone. If they don't read it in 10 minutes, it expires and deleted. Everything is verifiable. Every release is signed, SLSA-attested, SBOM-included, and logged in the Rekor transparency…
