Opengist vs Snipline

Opengist is a free, open-source pastebin that you host yourself, with Git as its storage and workflow. Every snippet is a Git repository: users can create snippets with a plain Git push, or clone and push over HTTP or SSH. Visibility can be public, unlisted, or private, and snippets may contain multiple files, binary files, and images, with ZIP downloads available. Users can browse revision history, compare changes with diffs, and search full text, code, and metadata. Rendering includes syntax highlighting for hundreds of languages plus Markdown, Mermaid, LaTeX, CSV, and media files. Login options include GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, OIDC, and LDAP; TOTP and WebAuthn are listed for account security. Deployment options are a single binary, Docker, or Kubernetes with SQLite, PostgreSQL, or MySQL. A REST API, embeds, JSON retrieval, topics, likes, and forks are also provided.

Snipline is a developer tool for organizing shell commands and retrieving complex commands with dynamic parameters. Snippets can use variables and multi-choice presets, so users can adapt a saved command to different inputs. Its keyboard-first interface supports searching for and copying commands without a mouse; tags, search, and import and export tools help manage a collection. The pricing page lists offline use and unlimited snippets subject to a fair use policy. Snipline offers a web option and desktop apps for Mac, Windows and Linux. On macOS, Snipbar adds a menu bar app with a customizable global keybind, Vim keybinds and Spotlight integration. SnipCLI is a free, open-source terminal tool for macOS and Linux that syncs snippets from a Snipline account and can search and run commands. The paid Choose your price plan is listed at $91,827 a year, billed per year, with all features, unlimited snippets under fair use and no device limit. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Snippets are stored in clear text, and Snipline advises against storing passwords or authentication tokens.
