Yeah, +1 to this. I'd use a CDN if it wasn't all owned by one company. I run a static site on IPFS, and just have two nodes located in NYC & San Francisco that my local gateway is always connected to.
It does a pretty good job for USA visitors (which is where the majority of my traffic comes from). But it'd be ideal for IPFS to use geo-dns, along with FileCoin implemented so that I can pay for nodes in other countries to have my content pinned.
Also, my site uses Service Workers to cache all of the content + TurboLinks, which drastically speeds up every subsequent page transition. I'm not sure if that's doable if you're using an external CDN like Cloudflare for all of your resources.
- StavrosK 8y agoHas the team done much since they raised $250 million? I've only seen one or two releases since, and the commit graph looks very slow. It's been a while since I checked, though, I might be out of the loop.
- prophesi 8y agoThere's been a lot of activity with the JS implementation of IPFS, but I'd agree that the core IPFS development has been lackluster lately.
- aspett 8y agoDo you have a blog on setting this up per chance? I'm interested in reading more about IPFS (haven't looked at it since I first heard about months and months ago). Their website seems a bit light on the details bar a link to a whitepaper I haven't dared to look at yet ;)
