I'd recommend https://privatebin.info, https://toptal.com/developers/hastebin, or https://rentry.co. All are open source and awesome replacement options. PrivateBin is a software package you download, while the other two are webapps.

+1 for PrivateBin, which has a public instance at https://privatebin.io/.

Dumb question buy why do people use crypto instead of other methods?

[-] yo_scottie_oh@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Why do people use crypto for what?

[-] conciselyverbose@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Donations.

Presumably because either the authors or intended visitors (those who value privacy) prefer a slightly more work to track transaction.

No Middleman to pay with either money or data

I did find some bins that have people hosting them publicly already, but due to the nature of this community they are probably going to advertise self-hosting as an option.
- https://privatebin.info/ is used as the pastebin alternative in the Libredirect extension. This page has a directory of instances.
- https://paaster.io/
- https://bin.bloerg.net/
- https://lesma.eu/:help
- https://www.verybin.com/
- https://kpaste.infomaniak.com/
- https://paste.sh/
- https://paste.myst.rs/
- https://paste.js.org/

These bins below are more like Github Gist replacements:
- https://demo.opengist.io/
- https://drift.maxleiter.com/

This last option isn't quite open source, it only has a bug tracker on Gitlab and an open API for plugin development:

DPaste.org - source is available and was created by an old coworker. I've used it for years

[-] Asudox@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

privatebin is pretty good.

There's no "open source" centralized website. You can't know what the server is effectively running unless you have access to it. To me this makes no sense.
