IPFS is slow as molasses and their solution was to introduce paid pinning services. Complete failure.

And then they announced they will willingly and proactively delete any hash that any legislative agency tells them to, and it was dead in the next minute.

Most distributed systems simply don't live up to their theory. Having a hub is simply always easier and consumers hopping temporally from hub to hub is just the most efficient mechanism.

Agreed. The idea behind IPFS is nice but we need to combine it with all the good lessons from the torrent software and stuff like NNCP in order to have something truly distributed, resilient, fault-tolerant and automatically replicated.
