My understanding is that Beaker initially supported both Dat and IPFS, but dropped IPFS in favor of Dat for a variety of reasons, some of which were discussed in this other HN post: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16434

I'll add a little context from my own experience. I have two NeTVs, one I use on occasion for a particular project, and one in case that one breaks. I spent a lot of time figuring out working with the platform. I got the impression,

"Reader analytics" is the term you're looking for. There have been several startups in this vein over the years, but only Jellybooks is still going. I don't know if they support the writing process, though; I've o

I just tried the first batch as a torrent and it worked fine for me. Note that IA torrents are hosted as web seeds, so if your client doesn't support that, you won't have any seeds. Also note that I don't think the hosted ve
