And there's a promising new IPFS-like system called Iroh, which should have a lot less overhead and in general just be faster than IPFS. It's not quite ready to just switch to right now, but an enterprising individual could probably make something useful with it without too much work (i.e. months, not years).

I'm using it for a distributed application project right now, but the intent is a bit different than the IA use-case.
