What you can build with MicroBin
MicroBin is a small, fast, fully-featured pastebin and file-sharing service written in Rust. A single binary serves the web UI, file uploads, paste sharing, URL shortening, and an admin panel — no external database, no PHP runtime, no heavy dependency tree. The default deployment is intentionally minimal so it stays usable on a tiny VPS yet covers the common use cases people self-host a pastebin for.
Self-hosting MicroBin on your own VPS keeps shared snippets, screenshots, and short links inside your infrastructure instead of public services that mine traffic patterns or insert advertising. Pastes can be password-protected, set to burn-after-reading, encrypted client-side, or pinned forever, and every paste comes with a QR code and short URL for quick mobile handoff.
Key features of MicroBin
Pastes and file uploads
Share text snippets and upload files of any type with size limits, automatic syntax highlighting, and inline previews.
Built-in URL shortener
Turn long links into short, branded URLs hosted on your own domain without standing up a separate shortener service.
Expiring and burn pastes
Choose default expiry windows, burn-after-reading semantics, or pin pastes forever to balance retention with privacy.
Client-side encryption
Optional client-side encryption guarantees the server never sees unencrypted text for sensitive snippets shared with a passphrase.
QR codes and admin UI
Every paste gets a QR code for mobile handoff, and an admin panel lets you browse, edit, or delete any paste from one screen.

I'm incredibly happy with Hostinger's VPS hosting! Their uptime is consistently top-notch, keeping my site running smoothly. Whenever I've needed help, their technical support team has been quick, knowledgeable, and genuinely helpful.
Everything is smooth and great with Hostinger, the AI chat bot + human chat, if AI can't resolve your question. Oh and them VPS is just fire, no ups and downs. Thank you dev team and everyone else involved. Keep it up 🚀
Finally a VPS hosting company that does it right! Well-priced. Excellent portal that respects their users' time. Seamless backups. Good support. Reliable. Feels rock-solid.
I reached out to Hostinger support after losing access to my self-hosted n8n instance, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Kodee and Mohammad from the support team were incredibly patient and thorough.
Many thanks to Carla for helping me with this N8N upgrade on my Hostinger VPS. Professional and knowledgeable, thank you again Carla.
Hostinger VPS is absolutely outstanding. It just always works. It is always fast and stable. Never down, never crashes.
The company is doing well, I am very happy with the specific services I use through them. Not as expensive as some places with really great VPS set ups and price plans.
