What Chiyogami actually does
Chiyogami is a self-hosted pastebin service that allows you to store and share text snippets securely. It provides user accounts, programmatic access via an API, client-side encryption, and visual features such as syntax highlighting and markdown rendering.
Best fit: It suits individuals or small teams wanting a private text-sharing service with client-side encryption and markdown support.
Worth knowing: With a modest repository footprint and slowing maintenance metrics, you may encounter unresolved bugs or lack community support compared to mainstream alternatives.
Deployment notes
As a containerised application distributed via Docker, you will typically need to configure persistent volumes for data storage and place it behind a reverse proxy to handle TLS termination.
