pastebin.ca
The classic Canadian pastebin, rebuilt — encrypted, expiring, single-use pastes with a full API.
Pastebin.ca is the project that first put me on the map: I launched it in 2004, and at its peak it was one of the most-visited sites in Canada. This is a from-the-ground-up modern rebuild, freshly revived.
The new version keeps the simplicity — paste, publish, share a link — but adds the things I always wanted: syntax detection, optional client-side encryption, flexible expiry, and read limits, including single-use pastes that self-destruct on first open. It’s also built for automation, with a REST API, a pbca CLI, and an MCP server so AI agents can paste too.
It anchors a small, revived family of “bin” tools — image, file, and note — that all share one account.
