IPFS

The InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) is a set of composable, peer-to-peer protocols for addressing, routing, and transferring content-addressed data in a decentralized file system. Many popular Web3 projects are built on IPFS - see the ecosystem directory for a list of some of these projects.

I have uploaded 2 Files with the IPFS Desktop APP. When i click on Share Link and put the Link in the browser i find nothing and get a Timeout after a few minutes. When I click on Inspect and then on
View on Public Gateway also nothing happens. When i click on "View on Local Gateway" the file is beeing downloaded. What did i do wrong? Why cant nobody access my file through IPFS?

Thanks in advance!

Thank you! Now it also works for me, but when i try to look for the other File (its 58MiB
big while the code above is just 781B) i get, again, a timeout error. Is there a size limit?

Could take a few attempts. Public gateways can have various issues. For instance the number of peers takes a while for DHT to propagate, AFAIK.

Larger files get split up into numerous small blocks, so it can cause issues when the requester has to track down and request all of those separate blocks.
