I'm searching for a straightforward and free hosting service specifically for text or XML files that comes with an API. I want to be able to upload and download files using an application I've created in VB.Net. Ideally, I'm looking for something similar to Pastebin, but it needs to be persistent—meaning the files won't get automatically deleted after a certain period. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

AWS S3 isn't free forever, but they do have a really cheap plan. The Free Tier lets you store 5 GB of files for a year, which might work for you if it's just text files.
You might want to consider using GitHub with a self-hosted runner. It could serve your needs if you're okay setting it up! It's a bit of work, but it's a solid solution.
True! You'll get plenty of requests and transfers within that free quota, so it could last a while depending on your usage!
