I really want IPFS to go mainstream. It solves a lot of problems with piracy and the internet in general. But people started thinking it was a blockchain thing, and I haven't heard much about it since then. Libgen uses it but that's the only place I've seen it be embraced.

Would you need a VPN for that? Cause if the MPAA lawyers have to throw money at programmers to make an example, then they will.

If you do need a VPN, then i2P would be a better choice, though it suffers from network size/speed.

Edit 01:

Per https://lemmy.ca/u/mp3 https://lemmy.ca/comment/2015681

File discoverability is poor, most people will not know how to act as a node and mirror files, and there's no builtin privacy protection in place and it's quite easy to figure out which IP addresses are hosting something.
