MicroBin is a self-hosted pastebin and file-sharing web application written in Rust, packaged as a single self-contained executable. It supports text pastes, file uploads, URL shortening, expiration control, and server-side or end-to-end encryption.
Use cases
- self-host a pastebin server
- share large files with others via a link
- share secrets or sensitive documents securely with encryption
- shorten and redirect URLs
- move text and files between machines from the terminal
- serve raw text or config files over HTTP
When to choose
- you want a lightweight, single-binary pastebin with minimal memory and disk footprint
- you need self-hosted file sharing with optional end-to-end encryption
- you want pastebin, file upload, and URL shortening in one tool
- you prefer simple Docker or cargo deployment without external dependencies
When to avoid
- you need a full cloud storage solution with user accounts and collaboration
- you require multi-user management, access control lists, or enterprise features
- you want a hosted service without running your own server
