Anyone looking to adopt a battle-tested TypeScript polyglot? 🐙
Ex-PayPal, Amazon, Protocol Labs — raised the bar at Amazon, led OSS with ~60k–100k+ MAU, and helped shape IPFS & libp2p.
Looking for a fun, high-impact project to code, mentor, and keep pushing systems (and people) forward.

Have you heard about filecoin-pin yet? docs.filecoin.io/builder-cook...
If you are using #ipfs @ipfs.tech @filecoin.global @ipshipyard.com, you should check it out. It's in alpha, but it's pretty exciting stuff!

on X: “which browser can i paste a CID into”
Wild how IPFS gets flak for not being “built into browsers,” while BitTorrent needs a client and Tor needs its own browser. UX is about the same; easier, even, with ipfs-companion or gateways. The tech isn’t the problem 😬, the expectations are. #ipfs

Oddly enough, Firefox in Playwright behaves differently on a hard refresh compared to the actual browser.
Or maybe the hack I had to do in Playwright to simulate a hard refresh is insufficient. Has anyone had to deal with this with service workers?

what if IPNS could be multi-peer controlled via threshold signatures? no key sharing, no blockchain, still valid on old IPFS nodes.
