I've had IPFS support on my website for a while now and figured since one of the top HN posts was about porting a blog to IPFS I'd share the IPFS link.

Yeah, ipns links are pretty slow compared to ipfs links.

The best practice is to have a domain using dnslink[0] which always points to the most recent IPFS hash on a gateway with the content already pinned. I believe this is what the IPFS team does for their blog, using a combination of a static site generator and web hooks.

Oh, that's pretty neat! I hadn't seen that before. Does dnslink work with browsers at all?

I just installed ipfs and noticed this as well - ipns performance is pretty terrible. I tried loading a page that was created (and therefore stored) on my node, and it takes a good 10 seconds to load).

edit: looks like this might be relevant: https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/3860

Yeah... just sits loading forever here too.

Loads for me :)
