No bueno 👎
Tbh, the rather obfuscated nature of IPFS protocol and its network has always had me raising an eyebrow. In its current state, I question what the big push for it has been, given the main thing it successfully functions as, is a(n) (only partially reliable), volunteer network for decentralized cloud storage. There was very high ambition for what this protocol would eventually become, but development and hype seem to have died as soon as the "web3 dream" turned out to be more of a fancy name for a pre-existing concept (crypto currency ecosystem). So now that those bubbles have popped, my assumption was that IPFS would be repurposed under a more simplistic, less ambitious P2P DCS system, but many of its community developers have abandoned it for one of the various up-and-coming novel web protocols, and this client is yet another example of this being the case. I seemingly cannot even access the core components of IPFS on here. I can literally interface with more IPFS functions in a traditional web browser, than I can from this app.

The IPFS Web UI is great but it desperately needs the ability to download files
Smooth and familiar
Looks and feels just like I’m using IPFS on my desktop pc. Love it! I just wish the downloading worked. Download button does not do anything currently. I just need a way to download my files natively on my device and I’d give it 5 stars.
