I Built a Paste Tool That Never Stores Your Data on a Server

Most paste services upload your content to a server before giving you a shareable link.

I wanted something simpler for sharing sensitive information like passwords, Wi-Fi credentials, recovery codes, or short private notes.
So I built Link Paste.

How it works
πŸ”— Your entire paste is stored inside the URL.
🚫 Nothing is uploaded or saved on any server.
⚑ The link is generated instantly in your browser.
πŸ”’ No link = no access to the data.
πŸ—‘οΈ Lose the link = the data is gone forever.

Since there's no database, there are no server-side copies to delete, leak, or expire.
It's best suited for:

Passwords
Wi-Fi credentials
Recovery codes
Temporary secrets
Short private notes ("shower thoughts" or reminders)

This isn't intended for large files or permanent storageβ€”it's designed for quick, private sharing without relying on a backend.
I'd love feedback on the idea and suggestions for improving it.

To Instant share Long Links, QR code is provided

Friend, that's a super great idea! While it's not intended for large files (as you mentioned), it can be super useful for quick, small file sharing! Outstanding work πŸ’―
