Cloud Storage & File Sharing — entry 017 of 18
The Null Pointer
The Null Pointer (0x0.st) is a minimalist, no-account temporary file host and URL shortener: a plain POST with a file returns a bare URL as the entire response body, with retention scaled by file size. A live OPTIONS preflight with an Origin header against the real host, 0x0.st, returned a 200 with no Access-Control-Allow-Origin header, resolving cors from unknown to no; no auth is required for uploads, and HTTPS was reconfirmed. It's a single free, ad-free service with no paid tier, retaining files from 30 days up to 1 year depending on size (max 512MiB).
