Out of curiosity, how did you go about hosting your files using IPFS? Do you have to keep a node running constantly or does the network save the files once you upload them?

      Ok cool! Out of curiosity, how do you keep it running constantly? Cause when I run it I have to leave a console open and minimized in the tray. While this isn’t that inconvient, it’s not super optimal. o you have it setup differently?

        I configured it as a system service on my GNU/Linux box.

          Very cool! I'll have to look into that! Do you know how much space it take ups on your computer storing files?

          Thanks for the help, btw! I've been wanting to really explore IPFS for a while now and just started really exploring it. I actually just added my first IPFS link to a wallpaper post I made! You can check it out here! :)
          (Let me know if that IPFS link works as it should)

          EDIT: Lol, I just realized you already voted that post! Did the link work right? :)

            Nice picture! It loaded instantly via both ipfs.io and my own node.

            IPFS will take as much space as the files you want to store. It will also cache objects that were requested by your node, but those can always be cleaned out by running "ipfs repo gc".

              Ok awesome! Glad to know it loaded perfectly! Enjoy the 4K wallpaper! ;)

              Also, yay! I was sorta worried that as files got cached in my node it would slowly suck the space from my hard drive, but I'm glad to know it can easily be purged to prevent that from happening! I need to look into making my node permanent then! :)
