 you fucking clowns 

we have a decentralized file storage system that is not dependant on DNS or “file servers” already

and it has over a decade of development work 
 Are you referring to BitTorrent? 
 of course
your LN address is broken 
 Oh yeah... I'm working on that as we speak. 
 Got to be torrents 
 congrats 
 BitTorrent depends on trackers with (usually) DNS names.

Magnet links depend on "mainline" Kademlia DHT which works as badly as IPFS'. 
 yeah, being DNS independent is impossible in general, but you can use any transport for finding peers 
 I think you meant the blockchain

 Torrents. 
 Where's this? 
 Dependent. 
 There are a few. IPFS is just one of the more robust ones, but Freenet is also technically a distributed file storage network. I believe Zeronet is also capable of this. There are probably others I'm missing. 
 Yeah. Bittorrent. The one that works. The one that people still use to this day for p2p file sharing. 
 Oh. I see you can make to yell at dumb things. I'm here for it. 🤣
