  • Yes, the point with Iroh and IPFS is that they are content-adressed, and therefore addressable, so they massively deduplicate what is uploaded, and as a consequence there is hardly any redundant data, if not no redundant data, and that makes it more efficient, reducing the bandwidth and space required on all nodes, so if something is archived once, then all subsequent archives of that same thing will be just references to the original file, and will be very resilient since It’s like a torrent (you can seed, pin, or hydrate the content so it won’t disappear so easily).


  • I don’t think so if it’s not in a single central server. Although I can be wrong, that’s not the point I mean by uncensorable and undeletable, what I mean is something like a government, agency or person can’t arbitrarily try to shut down, censor or delete something legitimate that’s archived, like has actually happened with Wayback Machine (and what’s thus one of the main reason why I propose this); of course I don’t want CSAM, doxxing, GPDR violations or illegal content whatsoever, and if the authors wants their content deleted, they obviously have the right to be forgotten, but there’s also situations when a web is totally taken down in a illegal or arbitrary way, or when something turns into lost media or almost lost media, and that’s when this is valuable, along with making the collective memory more reliable and durable.




  • Repost: I don’t think so, because IPFS is just more sort of a framework and platform to those kind of applications, something as Nostr or some types of S3 storages, or a CDN. What’s necessary thus is all the business logic, the specialized nodes and clients, the metadata, identifiers and namespaces so that that application is not just a directory spread over IPFS (or in our case, Iroh, which is much better than the vanilla IPFS node, Kubo). Something also like in HTTPS you don’t see a lot of loose hyperlinks, but rather applications that use HTTPS underneath as another layer.

  • Yes, although in theory you can completely do without a Blockchain and instead use the Holochain for the entire transaction book and the backlog, although without anything economic involved since an archive has to be accessible to anyone — except perhaps some small profit in tokens for seeding, pinning and/or archiving websites or any other type of content, so that there is an incentive to make it functional. Using small-world topology to optimize such CAS also sounds attractive.



  • As I said before, I just said it as a saying, no malice intended, and as I said too, they’re de facto similar to mastodon.today, so that’s why I called them so. I could be more clear and specific? Of course, but I don’t have infinite mental—and mental too—energy, and I didn’t had sufficient of it at that moment. You shouldn’t thus make hasty conclusions about the intentions or thoughts of another person. You can of course ask for more details if you want, but you’re not about to know the circumstances under something was wrote or said—in my case, I was hugely tired so I hadn’t time nore energy to lose 30 minutes of my life searching on internet for something that at the very end isn’t really important to the point of my post.

    About the IQ, where I said something about that? I don’t really understand where do you take that from; I never boasted about any of that, you can read my post again so you can see that I never made any comments about my IQ or anyone else’s. It’s taken totally out of nowhere.

    And about your disinformation claims, that’s defamation and I feel (although of course I can’t say for sure, so I won’t affirm or deny anything about it) that there is some kind of malice behind it, because again, as I mentioned before, you are completely going around the bush, taking a lot of things out of context and inventing others, and on top of that exaggerating something that is not even the point of the post and at most is a stupid mistake due to oversight, without even trying to take the context into account.
