"ana you said the same thing twice ipfs is bittorrent"

for something that inspired some of the atproto data model, IPFS is truly irrelevant
it’s basically rare usage in piracy and anti-censorship circles but torrenting and tor are still better alternatives anyway

you know i just realize bluesky is ipfs but actually useable except not

blob limits existing at all prevents it from being usable for anything beyond text based content

I kinda want to make an ipfs atproto bridge so you can like p2p request atproto records or blobs hosted on pdses by CIDs from existing IPFS nodes or gateways wouldnt that be completely useless but funny

The history behind iroh is essentially:
- it used to be an implementation of a bunch of ipfs protocols (bitswap, integrated with the amino DHT etc.)
- this attempt was scrapped, and renamed to beetle (it's still out there)

mathematica is the most absurd fucking program i've ever used
you thought emacs was crazy
this fucker can (completely locally) fold proteins, download data from ipfs, import apache log files, handle multi-gigabyte TSVs, and parse and semantically rank natural-language options without using a GPT LLM

still trying to figure out pds-lfs without ipfs

i was thinking of pinnings blobs onto IPFS and getting the user to also pin copies but that relies on the user to actually do that otherwise i'd be the one actually hosting the blobs and if i ever go down then those blobs are gone. also base64 encoding is to get around github.com/bluesky-soci...

Can decentralization fix social media? W matrix foundation, IPFS foundation, mastodon

honestly calling atproto 'web3' is really silly because its very intentional about not distributing everyone's content to everyone in the way blockchain is. i had the same weirdness seeing IPFS get the label when IPFS doesnt do that either.

yay ipfs stuff. i do not understand any of this but it looks like a cool proof of concept of private data on atproto via pinata.cloud/private-ipfs... docs.pinata.cloud/files/privat...

Found my own comments on the web page. Oh right I should tinker with this again, you’ve done interesting work here!

@ngerakines.me is working on some stuff around verifying that an Onion site is it’s Clearnet equivalent, which might be transferable for your IPFS use case.

it actively uses technology and ideas from ipfs which is extremely "web3"
October 22, 2025 at 6:32 AM
I could go on, but no. No no no no no. Noooo. No.

Optionality destroys interoperability in all cases, but it's even worse for content addressing because every option makes the content that much less addressable.

If you want options, we already have IPFS & IPLD :)

This is why you’re supposed to host the images on IPFS, which works more like a torrent
NFTs are amazing because you apparently “own” them but the AWS outtage yesterday took out everyones apes lol
October 21, 2025 at 2:49 PM
Of course IPFS essentially solves this, though it still seems odd to me that you need to use an entirely separate system to verify what the token is supposed to be pointing at.

Why weren't these stored via IPFS?

Does having a central point of failure completely defeat the point of "Web3"?
October 21, 2025 at 3:53 PM
Sad that IPFS pushed for NFTs to rely on their tech as it'd actually decentralize the storage of these pictures and none of these grifters entertained it despite it actually being decentralized.

NFTs are a scam but they didn't even try hard enough IMO.

Have you heard about filecoin-pin yet? docs.filecoin.io/builder-cook...

If you are using #ipfs @ipfs.tech @filecoin.global @ipshipyard.com, you should check it out. It's in alpha, but it's pretty exciting stuff!
Filecoin Pin | Filecoin Docs
Pin IPFS content to Filecoin using familiar IPFS tools and workflows.
