Hi, normally i dont post at all. But this is my attempt to share pieces of information anonymously that expires in a certain time. Site is made in Angular and and the backend is a simple thread safe dictionary that resets every 24 hours. It is by no means a commercial solution to any problem. This is something i came up with half an hour of dev work, coz i could not find anything similar.

It looks very good for something whipped up in an hour. Did you consider using Redis as a data store for this? Seems like it would be quite easy to just generate a UUID as a key and set it with an expire time in redis. If you did consider Redis, any reason why you didn't end up using it?

Nice. Is there any way one could proof that data is really deleted?

Not questioning your honesty, just curious.

That's obviously impossible.

Nice work! In the past I've used https://privnote.com/ for this kinda thing but it doesn't allow as short self destruct times
