  4. …affiliated. From what I understand, they provide an open-source implementation of the relay server: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh/tree/main/iroh-relay (which may or may not be what they actually run as part of their hosted offering).…

  5. …a network specialist, I fail to see how this is not a glorified P2P DNS. Maybe this example helps: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh#rust-library const ALPN: &[u8] = b"iroh-example/echo/0"; let endpoint = Endpoint::bind().await?; // Open…

  8. …https://www.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/93kr9h/recommended... 20 years later, Rust has iroh: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh I realize there is some irony in pointing to a Rust library as a final solution. But my point is that when…

  11. They have docs for using self-hosted relays: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh/blob/main/iroh/docs/loca...

  12. It looks like they have examples with unreliable channels: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh/tree/main/iroh/examples You'll prob have to check the max packet size that you want to forward because quic adds a bit of overhead.

  17. …we make a similar library, that's all-in on "p2p-QUIC", with pre-baked protocols to import on top: https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh

  19. …related, a consensus abstraction might also be handy for some applications. Also check out [iroh]( https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh ) as a potential awesome replacement for p2p; as well as [Actyx]( https://github.com/Actyx/Actyx ) as an…

  24. Take a look at https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh Open source project written in Rust that uses BLAKE3 (and QUIC, which you mentioned in another comment)
  25. If you're talking about this https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh ... Iroh is a p2p file syncing protocol. That's not even close to the same wheelhouse as SeaweedFS. What was their rationale for recommending it?
  26. Totally biased founder here, but I work on https://github.com/n0-computer/iroh , a thing that started off as an IPFS implementation in rust, but we broke out & ended up doing our own thing. We're not at the point where the iroh implements…
