  • Can confirm. Meddled with it a little bit a while ago trying to productively use it to host Lutris installer files. It’s an absolute mess; slow, unreliable, without proper documentation and a really bad default node application.

    Also it managed to get our server temporarily banned by the hosting provider since the “sane default settings” includes the node doing a whole sweep of your local subnet on all NICs respectively, knocking at multiple ports of every device it can find. Because the expected environment of a node apparently is your home network… a default setting that caused problems for many people for many years by now.

    A project like in this post might benefit from looking at more modern/mature reimplementations of IPFS’ concept, like Veilid (which would also offer additional features as well).
