You can now paste screenshots, images, and text directly from your clipboard into fff files. Hit Ctrl+V on the homepage — get a shareable link instantly. No saving files to disk first.
Open fffiles.com in any modern browser. Copy a screenshot, an image, or a block of text. Press Ctrl+V (Cmd+V on Mac) anywhere on the page. The pasted content uploads and you get a download link. That's it.
The paste handler captures clipboard data — PNG images, JPEGs, plain text. It feeds into the same upload pipeline as drag-and-drop and file picker uploads. Same R2 storage, same presigned URL flow, same auto-delete.
Screenshots are the most common use case. You grab a screen capture, paste it, get a link. No intermediate save-to-dialog, no "Save As" location to remember, no cleanup later. For developers, designers, and support teams who share screenshots dozens of times a day, this saves real time.
Pasting text works too. Need to share a code snippet, a config file, or a list of addresses? Copy, paste, share. The text is saved as a .txt file that anyone can download.
Drag-and-drop is great. But it requires a mouse or trackpad. Pasting is keyboard-native. Ctrl+V is muscle memory for anyone who has used a computer in the last 30 years. Combined with fff files' zero-account flow, the entire sharing process stays hands on keyboard.
The paste event happens entirely in your browser. The clipboard content is read locally, then uploaded via the same presigned URL mechanism as regular file uploads. Pasted content never passes through our servers — it goes directly to Cloudflare R2. Same privacy guarantees as any other file.
Clipboard paste is supported in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari (desktop). Mobile browsers have limited clipboard access — for phones, drag-and-drop or the file picker remain the best option.
