Hey HN – I built PasteDrop because I wanted a way to send
myself stuff from a public computer without signing into
anything. Library, hotel lobby, friend's laptop — paste it,
get a two-word URL like "amber-valley", grab it from your
phone later.
But it's useful beyond that: quick code sharing without
GitHub gists, sharing sensitive text with password protection,
or just sending someone a link that's easy to say out loud
instead of a 40-character hash.
No accounts, no tracking, 24-hour expiry by default. The
two-word slugs come from a ~10K word curated list — designed
to be memorable enough to carry in your head.
Tech: Next.js 16, Neon Postgres, Vercel.
What's your go-to for quick paste sharing right now?

Great catch, thank you! I upgraded the password hashing to bcrypt last night and
introduced a mismatch in the verification path. Fix is deploying — should be live in a few min minutes. Appreciate you testing.
