paste.sh Alternatives

paste.sh

This is a simple paste site. It doesn't do syntax highlighting, or get in your
way. It gives you a textarea and you type in it.

However behind the scenes it is encrypting your data. It uses a recently
introduced browser feature (crypto.getRandomValues) to do this securely.

This does mean you need a modern browser. It seems to work best in Chrome,
Firefox also works well. Reading pastes should work in most browsers with
JavaScript.

However if you didn't guess from the name there is also a shell script
"paste.sh"; see https://paste.sh/client or run the following commands to
install it:

cd ~/bin
curl -O https://raw.github.com/dgl/paste.sh/master/paste.sh
chmod +x paste.sh

JavaScript running in your browser encrypts your data using AES-256 (via the
CryptoJS library). The key is generated on the client side and the server is
never able to decrypt the data, this works because the URL fragment (the part of
the URL after the '#' symbol) is never sent to the server.

Beware that depending on how you share the URL with others the fragment part may
be stored by other systems.

You can edit the paste for some time after pasting; this uses a session cookie
in your browser. (Yes, if you deny cookies this site won't work, sorry).
