ABOUT

IPFS Companion harnesses the power of your locally running Kubo IPFS node (either through the IPFS Desktop app or the command-line daemon) directly inside your favorite browser, enabling support for ipfs:// and ipns:// addresses, automatic IPFS gateway loading of websites and file paths, easy IPFS file import and sharing, and more.

IPFS is a peer-to-peer hypermedia protocol designed to make the web faster, safer, more resilient, and more open. It enables the creation and dissemination of completely distributed sites and applications that don’t rely on centralized hosting and stay true to the original vision of an open, flat web. Visit https://ipfs.tech to learn more.

FEATURES

- Automatically use IPFS to retrieve sites, files, and other resources already stored on IPFS (including redirecting DNSLink hostnames to IPNS names via your choice of gateway)

- Support content-addressed IPFS paths (/ipfs/) and URIs (ipfs://) in your browser, and redirect them to the gateway of your choice

I've been using IPFS Companion for quite a while, and I've noticed significant CPU usage that impacts my browser's performance. I switched to using DScan, a more efficient alternative. It doesn't need to run an IPFS node, significantly reducing the resource load on my system. It's also easier to manage my storage across multiple devices! https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/dscan-own-your-identity-o/idpfgkgogjjgklefnkjdpghkifbjenap

The extension does what it says...but god knows what else it is doing. When enabled Chrome uses a whole CPU core at all times.

Majorly slowed down my browser to the point that I had to remove it. While I was using it, it was nice. IPFS links worked seamlessly and I could direct it to my local IPFS node
