VERDICT

Should I use Textdrop?

We're verifying your browser - textdrop.sh

Depends. Confidence is low: textdrop.sh claims zero-knowledge, end-to-end encrypted pastes but has almost no independent reviews, and the site hid behind a browser check. Fine for casual snippet-sharing; make sure you're not confusing it with the several unrelated TextDrop apps before paying.

Confidence

Low. Based on ~30 public sources; most describe unrelated products named TextDrop — textdrop.sh itself has few usable sources, hence low confidence.
