Pastebin Chrome Extension

The Pastebin.com Chrome Extension streamlines sharing text snippets online by allowing users to quickly paste any selected text to pastebin.com. After installing, a small icon appears in your browser toolbar. Simply highlight any text in Google Chrome, click the 'Pastebin' button, and the text is automatically added to Pastebin's textarea. Submitting generates a unique URL, letting you easily access and share your text anywhere. The extension also supports customization through its Options panel to tailor the experience to your preferences.

This lightweight and user-friendly extension is perfect for developers, writers, and anyone needing a fast way to share code snippets, logs, or notes. It saves time by eliminating manual copy-paste steps and offers instant access to your pastes with unique links for sharing across platforms or with colleagues.

User reviews

Users appreciate this extension for quick code sharing, maintaining formatting, and syntax highlighting, which saves time. However, multiple users report serious login issues, such as errors, lack of social media login options, and captchas not showing. Posts sometimes appear as guest submissions despite login, making management difficult. Additionally, users want better folder selection and simpler one-click copying for pastebin links. Overall, while useful, the extension suffers from significant usability and login problems.
Pros
  • Useful for quickly sharing code with others
  • Maintains code indentation properly
  • Provides efficient syntax highlighting
  • Time-saving for users who share code snippets often
  • Links generated are reasonably short and shareable
Cons
  • Login functionality is broken or does not work properly, with errors and inability to use social media login
  • Captchas or login errors are not displayed properly, causing confusion
  • User pastes often appear as guest posts even when logged in
  • Difficulty in selecting folders or organizing pastes within the extension
  • Copying pastebin links requires extra clicks, not one-click copy
