Why even have other programming languages?
Can I introduce you to Node-OS? https://node-os.com/
- If it can be done in code, it will be done in JavaScript.

It's not that hard guys, his friend with a coding degree said.
look, if this is a thing, I'm sure we can also make a java one

In what programming language would you write new OS?
Maybe not the kernel since JS needs a runtime at least, but there is https://node-os.com/ based on the linux kernel.

I Moved My Blog from IPFS to a Server
It's because of the kind of content that is shared. BitTorrent serves a lot of content you are not allowed to redistribute, so having an open gateway immediately puts you at risk of aiding the distribution of content. But it does work, someone even made something native to browsers so browsers themselves can share content: https://webtorrent.io/. There are even fuse "gateways" to make it native to your computer and pretend the files exist locally: https://github.com/search?q=bittorrent+fuse&type=repositorie...
IPFS doesn't seem to be used for that kind of content much, it seems to be targeted more towards web-native content (html pages, images, that kind of stuff). It's probably safer for Cloudflare to run this.

Suggestions to host 10TB data with a monthly and100TB bandwidth
If it fits your model, WebTorrent[0] can offload a lot of bandwidth to peers.

Time to watch my favourite ads featuring videos!
Then https://github.com/webtorrent/webtorrent could be used to actually download the videos in browser, the idea being here though, that you would at least seed out as much as you got. Enabling other's to access videos without requiring creators have the infrastructure to push a video to 1000s or more clients at once.
