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.

Is it possible to back up MacOS or Windows OS itself with IPFS?

If that is possible, please let me know the benefits.

It's a good idea, but alas IPFS would be a poor fit for this as there is no assurance that anyone would cache your giant backup files.

You are better off using Wasabi or some other S3 backup target.
