  This web design is very nice to look at

  Alright, i had plans to use Github (or maybe something Cloudflare ish) but your $2/m has me seriously interested. I'm reviewing now.I hate when i see fun side projects that cost the same as full subscriptions to other products. There's only a handful of $15/m services i "want" in my life.. it really raises the barrier to entry when i'm so aware and averse to subscription costs.Yet $2/m? Instantly sold on that price. It's a fun price, it looks like a fun product, it lines up perfectly for me. It's silly that the price has me almost more interested than the product. Love itThanks for this, i plan to try it out!

  I stumbled across this clever service when looking for a “pastebin” that handled rendering terminal output with ANSI codes. The irony is that they don’t actually allow that (just plain text can be piped to their pastes service), but I found their whole site and vibe delightful!And the two authors, qudat, and antoniomima are active on HN, as their responsive comments here demonstrate. Just good work all around.

  Love the idea, but I couldn't find a "pricing" page and wanted to abandon reading immediately (I have no time for unsustainable services). Then I learned from the discussion that the pricing is $2/m, which, two things: 1) I still can't find that price on the web site, and 2) it seems unsustainable to me, so I'm still worried.I run a B2B SaaS. Support costs is what eats you alive: in case of a complex B2B app anything below $40/month is unsustainable. This is of course better for simpler apps/services, but even there you have to be super careful.

  I love this! I was about to start using Substack for a personal/professional blog and I was very concerned about the structure they "force" you into. I don't want to socialize in the way they want me to. I just want to write my stuff down, and perhaps help someone, but at the end, all I want is a place to share things with myself in a more elaborated way. Looking at it now!

  Love the KISS approach to your services. Simple text files, built on fundamental services. Honestly also a great way to build SSH (and associated suite) chops for folks just entering Linux/Unix/BSD/*nix world or who only know Windows.Going to poke at it this week myself. Looks like a healthy competitor to PikaPods for the basic stuff.Keep up the good work!

  Pretty unrelated, but if you are a developer and don't have a lifetime SDF.org membership, you should.

  How interesting! I'm excited by all the energy lately that i've seen around more text-based fun stuff, from Gemini to tilde communities to more TUIs/TUI apps, to this ssh powered set of services! Keep 'em coming!

  rsync is no SSH tool. I get how that sentence emerged, but it is still a turn off, mixing up terminology like that for convenience.

  My company blocks ssh. Is there a way to tunnel this through HTTP?

  Love the idea.There are a couple oddities I found in the UI.1. When you sign up the prompt says “signup”. I didn’t know what it wanted. I finally just guessed username and that was right.2. I couldn’t get tokens to create (which they say are highly recommended). I hit c for create, entered a name, press enter. Nothing.

  Very cool. Though might want to increase contrast on diagrams, for example here https://pico.sh/tuns

  This is a really fun project! I've been trying to think of unique ways to allow non-devs to publish blog posts easily on their own websites and this is some great inspiration for it.

  Big fan of pico.sh, been hosting a few small sites on there for a while now, no faster way to get something up and running

  I signed up for this awhile back when it was free, it's been hosting bibbidibobbidi.boo ever since. It's very neat.

  Love to see a midwest/great lakes business address :)

  At risk of scope creep, the greatest selling point Netlify has for me is automatic form email support for static sites. Would be awesome if pico.sh supported that.

  I don't seem to be able to add multiple SSH public keys. When I try to create one, I paste my pub key and hit enter and… no key is added.

  Without being open source this is basically just a walled garden version of sr.ht.

  This looks awesome. Well done.

  I have fish shell... took me a little bit to realize that this prevents it to create account, once I created it using bash, it works well. Just FYI.
• jarbus
  I love this

  Didn’t Pico used to be a shell grep like search? Or was that another project?

  this is really cool but something I would want to self-host, especially for pastebin.
