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.

Yeah, i think right now big focus is towards devs and businesses looking to integrate Ligthouse. Right now, they are in web3 niche so that's why we need to mention web3 everywhere on our site.
Long-term focus is to abstract all of these for masses. I know that my local friends in my city probably do not care about terms like web3, ipfs, filecoin, etc. They care about resilient, secure, perpetual storage and likely not about what goes behind the tech. Just not the big focus right now
Web3 term reminds people about crypto currencies, NFTs, crypto bros, and finfluencers. It sounds like a scam. Peer-2-peer I guess is more neutral term.
Hm, yeah i like p2p. Crazy that when i posted this question, in mind i was expecting more people trying our tech through a developer lense . But such feedback is also important i guess
A lot of tech people (me included) ignore marketing, thinking that good product will sell itself. That’s not true. I worked for several companies that made millions with terrible product. But those with bad marketing barely survived couple of quarters. I hate to admit it because I am bad at marketing.
Very true.
