MicroBin is a super tiny, feature rich, configurable, self-contained and self-hosted paste bin web application. It is very easy to set up and use, and will only require a few megabytes of memory and disk storage. It takes only a couple minutes to set it up, why not give it a try now?
Check out the Public Test Server at pub.microbin.eu!

cargo install microbin;
curl -L -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/szabodanika/microbin/master/.env;

- File uploads (eg.
server.com/file/pig-dog-cat) - Raw text serving (eg.
server.com/raw/pig-dog-cat) - QR code support
- URL shortening and redirection

- SQLite and JSON database support
- Private and public, editable and uneditable, automatically and never expiring uploads
- Automatic dark mode and custom styling support with very little CSS and only vanilla JS (see
water.css) - And much more!
In MicroBin, an upload can be:
- A text that you want to paste from one machine to another, eg. some code,
- A file that you want to share, eg. a video that is too large for Discord, a zip with a code project in it or an image,
- A URL redirection.
You can use MicroBin:
- To send long texts to other people,
- To send large files to other people,
- To share secrets or sensitive documents securely,
- As a URL shortener/redirect service,
- To serve content on the web, eg. configuration files for testing, images, or any other file content using the Raw functionality,
- To move files between your desktop and a server you access from the console,
- As a "postbox" service where people can upload their files or texts, but they cannot see or remove what others sent you,
- Or even to take quick notes.
...and many other things, why not get creative?
