What alternatives are worth considering?
And are the pipelines available well tuned and compatible to build flatpacks and snaps?

I'm currently a top 100 #OSM contributor for #Portugal on @streetcomplete. That doesn't feel quite right. I'm really not helping much lately. Come on @openstreetmap community living in or visiting Portugal! Grab your phone, start contributing and kick me out of the #top100! Thank you!
ohhh half the demos for IPFS are down and the commits die down slowly :/
i have the feeling that IPFS is slowly dying down, and i think this would be quite sad since it is a super useful technology. [pls see Context further down]
The NFT storage bullshit that was done to gain a bit of publicity for IPFS was really not a good long term strategy.
Also kind of sucks that so many ppl think that IPFS is something something blockchain... although it isn't... i guess it is because FileCoin uses IPFS...
If FileCoin would be usable in the first place this would be not such a big problem IMHO but for now it seams more like a speculation thingy then anything usefully that goes beyond "super complex and slow solution for backups".
At least everything is quite good documented and MIT/Apache-2.0 and other FOSS licenses.
Also Protocol Labs, the org behind IPFS and FileCoin and a lot of cool projects that are super useful for Networking, have discontinued their research grand project, one project especially is something i consider extremely important: Basically a way to get data that is distributed over IPFS anonymously - this would have high impacts for the Freedom of Knowledge. -> here is the research-grant proposal:
https://github.com/protocol/research-grants/blob/master/RFPs/rfp-014-private-retrieval-of-data.md
-> Context:
IPFS is basically BitTorrent but without a central tracker and deduplicates data by default, also the data created the address which means that multiple ppl could upload the same file independently and it would have the same address.
