I believe that knowledge should be free, you should have access to knowledge even if you don’t have the money to afford buying it. This uses IPFS.

    I think they stopped endorsing IPFS. I can’t find a good source right now. If you wan’t to support Anna’s Archive, you can help seed their torrents. They don’t seem to have that much redundancy.

      You’re right.

      We’ve decided that IPFS is not yet ready for prime time. We’ll still link to files on IPFS from Anna’s Archive when possible, but we won’t host it ourselves anymore, nor do we recommend others to mirror using IPFS. Please see our Torrents page if you want to help preserve our collection.

        I’m curious, could anyone more knowledgeable about IPFS give an impression of the state of the protocol? It seems like a really interesting technology, but it also leans heavily into web3 and crypto bullshit. It’s that reflective of the network, or just bad marketing?

          It seems like most big projects have dropped it. I remember reading one of the big fall backs was it has one central node hosting via cloudflare then they dropped it or something. Only half remembering. It sounds so cool! Sad it doesn’t work
