you're absolutely right about ipfs. its mission of forever preserving the web is awesome but it means that data will last indefinitely (and every version of every piece of data lol)
i had never heard of hypercore. that's pretty cool. maybe lemmy will get some nice fixes for storage, image, video management to make instance media hosting easy for the instance maintainers so they can follow the same path reddit did of hosting post media. that way, media not only stays with the instance but can be edited/deleted by the users
