Lol 😂

I tried. It’s a bad look when the example content in the “explore” tab doesn’t even begin to load. I left the daemon running for a week.

My friend on shitcoin project tried using ipfs and was an epic fail.

I’d like to believe that a distributed file system would work/would be cool, but it seems plagued with the same issues every p2p system has.

on brave for wikipedia,that's about it lol

It serves my profile and banner pics right from my phone

What’s the magic? I left it running on my TrueNAS for a week, it found peers, but never would load anything.

Actually all I did was to install IPFS uploader on my iPhone!

Yes it's called a CDN đŸ€Ł

Yea it works well.

I use Infura

Is that a gateway? I was trying to get the daemon to work locally.

Yea. Upload your IPFS as usual. But pull from their CDN.

I don’t have the URL with me now. It’s basically https://infura’s.whatever/ipfshash

I checked to see if shit was less shitty.

It wasn’t.

It works if you're cool with waiting 3 minutes to find someone on the DHT who has your file.

Read this a while ago. Hits the nail on the head. Fiatjaf basically wrote a book on why IPFS (and IPNS) is garbage.
