I created this pastebin in 2006 and it’s been in continuous service ever since.
Originally I made it for fellow early Django adopters in Freenode’s #django
IRC channel.
It caught on. By Django 1.0, the framework’s debugging page had added a “Share this traceback” button using dpaste.com.
The iPython/Jupyter %pastebin
command targets dpaste.com as well.
The fact that two widely used Python projects rely on dpaste.com means I take site reliability especially seriously. I have automated tests confirming the site API functions in the way those projects expect.
