More TutorialsSet Up Your Own Private Pastebin: Control Your Snippets and Secrets
If you’ve ever relied on public pastebin services to share code snippets, logs, or sensitive configurations, you’ve probably worried about privacy and longevity. Public pastebins can delete content at any time, expose data to unwanted eyes, or fail to give you fine-grained control over who sees what. And what if they get hacked? Even if you're anonymous, logs and other data could possibly trace things back to you. And if you're stored anything sensitive there, they could be exposed. The good news is that you can easily set up your own self-hosted Pastebin. That's the LowEnd DIY way!

Services such as Vercel and Heroku provide an easy on-ramp to hosting your app, but they come at very premium prices. The alternative is to roll your own infrastructure with a self-hosted VPS, but this is starting from scratch and you sacrifice a lot of speed in getting your app to market.
