ipfs

Is IPFS IPNI down? nothing I upload shows up, despite peering files with multiple storage providers (Storacha, @pinata and @lighthouse-web3 )

Example:

Data Layer for AI powered with permanent storage and access control

afaik IPNI is still struggling. Both Pinata and shipyard are working on alternatives and strategizing more long term solutions. In the meantime we've been peering with as many providers as possible

seems like this issue is recent, before cid.contact had outages not very long ago

is IPFS network doing okay?

so the outage is confirmed? what is it caused by? Just Storacha struggling or the whole network is affected?

Also agreed.

Maybe IPFS should switch a DHT implementation from Amino to Kademlia? Swarm uses Kademlia, not sure what it's properties are and if it's better than others

This one is really bad, and it's showing that we need a new model for sharing and disturbing content. DHT is borked at scale, and IPNI requires too much decentralization. It's gonna take some collaborative effort to come up with a better solution so IPFS can scale.
