Show HN: Instantly pass your passwords securely

It seems like this is relying on the server to delete the message when accessed?

I made a pastebin years ago that does similar using an anchor tag for the key, except it doesn’t guarantee deletion. https://paste.sh

I’ve been thinking about making it more secure using service workers (something like a service worker combined with resource signing, so it can be cached in browsers and people have to explicitly “upgrade” — along with the hash of the script shown, which can be verified with a reproducible build from a git revision hash).

Yep. Right now I just override any message securely. I was thinking of doing something like having all the messages in memory and just wipe the memory there, but the problem with that approach is I can't tell people if it expired and thus you can't see if people eavesdrop.

Woa https://paste.sh is awesome. I love it. Super minimalistic. I wouldn't use it for sharing passwords, but using it for sharing notes and permanent things could be pretty nice. Right now I use Google Docs and hackmd, but they are not encrypting stuff. How does it work with multiple users online?
