Here's a fun way to spend the next 15 minutes on the site. Find search terms that satisfy both the above constraints: 1. Has at least 20 results 2. None of the first 20 results is porn content I even tried with Math and Chess. No dice.

Easy. Pick a scenegroup that only releases SFW content. "CODEX" "FLT" and such.

Sigh... came straight off the weekend, onto my work pc, and clicked an ipfs link.

Got a message from the cybersecurity team being like, "pls don't do that". Thanks HN.

Pretty cool though, interested in how IPFS develops in the future.

very cool! if anyones interested here's a generic implementation https://github.com/hcliff/sqlite-ipfs

also, to the author, make sure you turn _off_ persistent local storage, the performance is horrific (https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/issues/4045) - maybe helia is better?

It's censorship resistant if enough nodes mirror the sqlite file I guess. Is there any incentive for nodes to do so? Is it possible to see a statistic about how many nodes mirror it?

torrents work fine without having a monetary incentive, this misconception of the blockchain crowd really has to die its killing real decentral solutions

Sharing is caring!

I think your post needs to clarify this is true only if you use the ipfs client to access things hosted on ipfs. Accessing ipfs.io/ipfs/ doesn’t do anything you mentioned. Its just a gateway. You could take the link on the main submission. And replace ipfs.io with any (most, because some are offline) of the links here https://ipfs.github.io/public-gateway-checker/ And it will still work.

Tangential, but does anyone know what's happening with the JS IPFS implementation? when I tried it a while ago it seemed broken.

The implementation works well, but has limitations. It only works from browser to node and not browser to browser. Depending on what you are looking for it is more or less fast

Because that's not rarbg, rarbg is "rarbg.to", not rarbg.tw, rargb.to, rarbggo.to, rarbgproxy.to, rarbgmirror.org, rarbgaccessed.org, rarbgget.org

but what's difference between rargb.to and rarbg.to ?

rarbg.to is the real rarbg, rargb.to isn't.

Does anyone know if I can get sued for opening this up and searching "test"? I live in Germany, and they are pretty harsh when it comes to downloading. I opened this up while browsing HN without knowing what it was....

I'm in Germany as well. You're fine. You didn't download anything, and more importantly, didn't UPLOAD anything. Accessing this index site is not fundamentally different from using any other search engine.
