I'm going to shamelessly take this thread as an opportunity to link the work we recently did with IPFS that didn't stick when i tried submitting it before.
I'm very keen on seeing IPFS succeed, and (unlike with economics). I think a "trickle down" approach of targeting developer workflows in hopes that devs "reverse dogfood"[1] is very viable.
[1]: take the thing they use themselves and make it their program use it.
I've been following this work really closely, thank you! Making IPFS work with Nix is amazing work and it will be pretty incredible when every Nix server can act as a cache automatically.
