I guess I started an accidental AMA on which parts of the crypto space are good and which I'm so far not excited about, along with other big picture vision questions: https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/1827583576751181961 You should feel free to ask questions here too! Let's see if Farcaster can come up with higher-quality questions than the other app :)

How can we offer decentralized access to content? Http is not good enough any more. Ipfs feels unusable when it comes to normal users (without http gateways). Thoughts?

We need browsers with IPFS integrated. Brave was supposed to be that, but unfortunately its IPFS gateway is quite slow so I never end up using it.

Is native ipfs support (no gw) for browsers feasible (practically)? Or is the freedom to pick gw enough?

Have you looked into ar.io at all? We're building out a gateway network for accessing data stored on Arweave. In testnet currently with ~300 independently operated nodes. Still early days but its also IPFS compatible.

Does it fully support IPLD? Last I knew it was only arweave dataitems indexed by a tag for their claimed CID. One of the issues with either is privacy loss compared to https, are there summaries of efforts to increase privacy for p2p retrieval with ar.io's network?
