Self-Hosted Paste Landing

A private, expiring, passcode-protected text share page on your own object storage

Problem

People want to hand off a snippet, log or note without posting it on a public pastebin. Even with Cloudflare R2 or S3 available, there's no lightweight share entry point with its own landing page, expiry and passcode, so they upload manually and improvise the link.

Solution

A minimal text-share service you deploy onto your own object storage: paste text, pick an expiry and optional passcode, and get a share link. The landing page is a monospace preview with one-click copy and .txt download, and the content never leaves your bucket.

Users

Indie developers, ops engineers and small teams who already have Cloudflare R2 / S3 buckets

MVP

Single-page paste box; expiry choices (1h/1d/7d/forever); optional passcode; landing page with monospace preview and one-click copy; export as .txt; one-click deploy into the user's own Cloudflare account;

Revenue

Open-source core plus a paid hosted version (zero deploy, custom domain), or sell a deploy template and themes one-time

Why now

Object storage is nearly free and ubiquitous, yet lightweight sharing tools around it remain scarce. The service is stateless with no database, so a solo dev can ship it in one to two weeks and maintain it easily.
