because Berty, the go-orbit-db maintainers, aren't exactly super helpful

|
|
and welcoming in regard of the usage of their library. Not only do they
|
|
|
|
|
simply not document a thing, they also don't seem to care about supporting
|
|
|
|
|
recent IPFS versions either. Superhighway84 is bound to the version of IPFS
|
|
|
|
|
that Berty decides to support for go-orbit-db. go-orbit-db updates, on the
|
|
|
|
|
other hand, seem to introduce breaking changes from time to time, which are
|
|
|
|
|
hard to debug as someone without in-depth knowledge nor documentation, and
|
|
|
|
|
get basically no support from the Berty developers whatsoever.
|
|
|
|
|
Since Superhighway84 is pretty much a one-man-show it would be quite
|
|
|
|
|
challenging to fork go-orbit-db in order to keep it up to date with IPFS and
|
|
|
|
|
make its interface more stable. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be an
|
|
|
|
|
alternative to Berty's go-orbit-db as of right now, so Superhighway84 is
|
|
|
|
|
basically stuck with it.
