Your node is exposed as window.ipfs on every webpage. The API aims to be compatible with interface-ipfs-core, which means websites can now detect if the property exists in window context and opt-in to use it instead of creating their own js-ipfs node. It saves system resources and battery (on mobile), avoids the overhead of peer discovery/connection, enables shared repository access and more!

Well, that's an improvement, even though I'm not particularly thrilled by the browser dependency.

ipfs actually has a chance at mainstream adoption if they can make it just a browser extention. anything else is too much of a learning curve for the ipad generation to learn.

IPFS fags still believe ISPs aren't the centralized point of failure. make EMEfs then we'll talk.

Is there a way to download the plugin over IPFS with a ipfs.io official hash? Instead of trusting mozilla or jewgle men in the middle for no backdoors?

The 1.x branch works with XUL if you want to use older Firefox forks.

Compile it yourself. https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-companion

That's true, but there are to facets to p2p: obfuscation and distribution. Ipfs is a protocol that is concerned with solving the latter. Even if the former isn't resolved, that doesn't mean i2p can't lend itself to that in other ways, nor does it mean that ipfs wouldn't affect things like infrastructure and consumption.

Is it missing any features over the 2.*.* branch?

>Compile it yourself

First fuck nodejs, second is there a way to download the source code without trusting niggerhub?

IPFS solves distribution and using TOR bridges with a obfuscation protocol making your traffic always look like http traffic solves obfuscation. Use TOR.

>because replacing ISPs is trivial, amirite

It is actually. But your choices are equally shit. Don't like your comcast/compromised broadband modem provider over a physical coaxial line? Switch to a phone/DSL line. Don't like the entirely wiretapped by the NSA system of phone lines? Get jewgle fiber. Don't have/trust jewgle fiber or their equally compromised, with few exceptions, hardware of openwrt routers? Get satellite internet. Don't like the CIA sending your data to several worldwide centers in real time over satellite or the severe lacking in openwrt modems that support your provider? Get a cellular modem/phone for internet purposes. Don't like the fact that every single phone in existence is PWNED and fucked as a internet access point? Get a ham radio and use that to communicate with someone elses compromised access point. Don't like the slower then the phone line speeds of ham radio or the FAA intercepting and storing all waves you ever transmit? Well then you better get a pitch fork and deal with all the other forms of internet access all of which are compromised or equally shit.

What is the point of relying on a decentralized network if you are aiming for a distributed system? I2P seems to be better fit for the goals of IPFS despite being slower on comparison.

I don't want this Go garbage on my system just for this.
