This is true about anything GNUnet related, really.

I still find this image of GNUnet-GTK hilarious: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/it/0/0a/Gnunet-gtk_0....
I like how the availability of each file is 0%. "Yeah, we focused on the amazing UI first - we'll handle downloading later".
I wonder if they considered simply shipping with hashes for each byte of data of common files users may want to download.

Then users could "download" by brute-forcing each byte of data. This would not only keep the content private but also the metadata.

It might also speed up adoption.

What do you mean exactly?
