You're basically talking about IPFS. I think their problem is that they gave it a local HTTP interface and the documentation is... in need of improvements.
I always shy away from newer tech because of lackluster documentation and poor leadership. The latter is rare enough. Without proper documentation, I feel like I have to read the code and make my own notes to put into their documentation platform. Which is not what I want to do when I use it. Contributing is nice, but when doing something a core member would do without credit, it will dissuade me from participating.
I know that feeling. Curiosity often gets the better of me though: I'm a
nix
/ NixOS user - amongst the worst documented projects I've come across.
