That sounds potentially useful.
I have wondered at times what ipfs was for. What can you find on it that isn't on the normal web? What is the killer application for it (and please don't answer anything related to crypto currency, I'm not a fan of those)?
Maybe this can help answer that?
Exactly, making IPFS relevant as a web platform is one of my goals. I'm interested in IPFS because it removes a lot of barriers with the regular web like geo-blocking, scraping restrictions, server downtime, and most importantly the fact that it can be easily censored. I hope that moving to IPFS could remove gatekeepers and their evil attempts to take control of the web (Amp for example). But IPFS will never be successful without a search engine that has the same principles
