## What is yeet.md?

yeet.md is a free Markdown sharing tool operated by David V. Kimball LLC. You can write Markdown, preview it, and share it with a link. No accounts required.

## Data we store

### Published snapshots (server-side)

When you click **Publish**, the Markdown content is stored on our servers (Netlify Blobs) as an immutable snapshot and a permalink is returned. Published snapshots are accessible to anyone with the link and persist until manually deleted. Each publish creates a brand-new snapshot with a new id — there is no edit-in-place.

### View counts

Each published snapshot tracks a view count that increments when someone loads the page. This count is stored in a separate key from the snapshot content and is not tied to any identifying information.

### Rate limiting (IP addresses)

IP addresses are stored in a Netlify Blobs key/value store to enforce a per-IP publish rate limit (100 publishes per IP per hour) and prevent abuse. Each entry contains only the IP address (used as the key), a request count, and a reset timestamp — no other identifying information, no request bodies, and no link to any specific snapshot. IPs in this store are used solely for abuse prevention and are not analyzed, exported, sold, or shared with third parties.

### Local drafts (browser-only)

When you click **Save in browser**, drafts are stored in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device. Clearing your browser data will delete local drafts.

## Browser extension

The yeet.md browser extension (Chrome and Firefox) lets you publish Markdown to this site from a small popup or a right-click menu. Its data handling is the same as the website's, with one small addition: per-snapshot delete tokens are stored in the extension's own sandbox so the Delete button can appear on snapshot permalinks you published.

## Obsidian plugin

The yeet.md Obsidian plugin publishes the active note via the same `/api/share` endpoint. Per-snapshot delete tokens are kept in Obsidian's encrypted secret storage on your device. Tokens do not sync with your vault.

## What we don't do

- No accounts, no signups, no email collection
- No analytics on snapshot views (only an opaque counter)
- No advertising trackers, pixels, or third-party scripts at runtime
- No content scanning beyond what's needed to detect TOS violations on report
- No selling or sharing of any data with third parties

## Acceptable use

You are responsible for the content you publish. Don't publish illegal, harmful, infringing, defamatory, harassing, or otherwise objectionable content. You retain ownership of your content but grant us the right to host and serve it as part of operating the service.

## Liability

yeet.md acts as a passive host. We do not pre-screen content. We are not responsible for any content shared by users, nor for any consequences arising from that content. We are not liable for any harm caused by malicious actors, prompt injection, social engineering, or any other misuse of content shared on or through the service.
