    I came across IPFS a few times but I don’t know where to start. Is hosting a node a good role? Did you follow a guide, maybe a nice docker image we can just run?

      I don’t currently run it myself – I have some files in IPFS but haven’t spun up the daemon on my own server in a while…

      Hmm! I just checked their site and since I last looked into it they’ve added a nice desktop UI. I’ll have to try it out myself again.

      Hosting a node isn’t like running a Tor exit node or anything – you don’t AFAIK host anything you don’t explicitly put in there yourself, so there’s no danger of accidentally serving something you wouldn’t want to :)
