Hey, I am curious, are people working on storing fediverse data off the servers? Like using bittorent protocol or ipfs?

    Its is commonly done with S3 compatible storage, and projects like Garage allow to do so in a distributed way.

    Neither Bittorrent or IPFS seem particularly well suited for this.

    What do you mean by fediverse data?

    What problem are you trying to solve that isn’t solved by BitTorrent and IPFS?

    The nice thing about the fediverse is that it’s largely a concept with a few common protocols to make interoperability easier, you can solve pretty much any problem in line with the fediverse, but you do actually need a problem to solve.
