Heck, even Bluesky uses some IPFS tech. Does that mean it has a blockchain? Of course not.
> Let me put it in another context, would you say Brave has a blockchain? I'd definitely say it does.
I don’t use Brave, but from a cursory glance I think probably yes, it “uses/depends on” a blockchain for some functionality.

Can you show an example where that is the case for IPFS?

But one of them is directly tied to it. > I don’t use Brave, but from a cursory glance I think probably yes, it “uses/depends on” a blockchain for some functionality. It's just a web page, the actual browser functionality doesn't depend on it. But maybe it wasn't the best example.
