Paste2SSH for Linux
An early alpha build. The core works — copy a screenshot, it uploads to your
SSH server and swaps your clipboard for the remote path, same as the Mac app,
reading your ~/.ssh/config. But it's young: expect rough edges,
and updates are manual for now. Bug reports are very welcome.

Run it
Make it executable and launch:
No install, no package manager — it's a single self-contained file. If your distro doesn't ship FUSE, run it without extraction like this:
Requires x86_64 Linux with a desktop environment (system-tray support recommended).
Good to know
- It's alpha. The Linux build passes its CI (upload over real SSH, headless boot, AppImage build), but it hasn't been battle-tested across distros — if something looks off, please tell us.
- No auto-update yet. Unlike the Mac app, it won't update itself. To get a newer build, re-download the AppImage from the releases page.
- A couple of behaviors differ from macOS by design (e.g. remote cleanup of old uploads). Everything else mirrors the Mac feature set.
Found a bug?
The Linux version has its own repository. Please open an issue on GitHub — include your distro, desktop environment, and what you expected. You can also browse the source.
