Yes, also notice that there's a lot of empty space to the right.

Probibly not. The infrastructure one would be better, but oh well.

So, some of that could be our theme, which is already being discussed
at:
https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/5816
You could chime in there and see if things could be made more compact.

Or it could be an upstream issue (yea for having an upstream again!):
Looking at their demo site:
https://demo.modernpaste.com/
it does seem the layout is pretty set. So, perhaps you could ask them
to make things more compact there?
https://github.com/LINKIWI/modern-paste/issues

The paste URLs from the latter are also

If you use the command line 'fpaste' util it gives you a shortened url.
We have been discussing how to also include that in the web side.

Well, it's change and everyone dislikes that. I hope we can convince
upstream to make changes that our users (like yourself) wish so it's
nice for everyone.
