portal VS nft.storage

Sorry I can't say anything about this one, I can only share that it is somehow linked to https://internetcomputer.org/ and that everything is as Rusty as possible of course

checkout the internetcomputer.org basically the idea is to decentralize existing SaaS today as web3 is the emerging trend. let me know as im also a software engineer and we can maybe build something together

You can look up TPS as measured by an independent party on: https://realtps.net/ They don't have ICP there yet but ICP TPS can be seen on: https://internetcomputer.org/ and go to the ICP dashboard. The TPS includes query and update. Some controversy exists on whether to include both, but either way ICP is at least 5X faster TPS than Solana.

That's to bad that you have that perception, clearly without having any understanding what the Internet Computer is you would come to that conclusion. You can learn about the Internet Computer here: https://wiki.internetcomputer.org/wiki/Internet_Computer_wiki here: https://dfinity.org/ and here: https://internetcomputer.org/

https://internetcomputer.org/ ? lol

But if you want to check out some real projects built on ICP, visit InternetComputer.org. Keep in mind, however, that, on the facade, those projects are pretty much like any other site on the web.

The Internet Computer[0] hosts whatever kind of service you can cram in a smart contract form-factor. In exchange for having to deal with things like oracles to retrieve information from the outside world, it costs absolute peanuts[1]. I tend to use it whenever I want to PoC a web app frontend because it's usually lower-friction than a VM. Unfortunately there aren't that many things to show as an example that aren't just NFT silliness, but one big one is OpenChat[2], which also shows off the basically zero-friction single-sign-on[3] that can't be tracked across services.

Will it pan out? I have no earthly idea. But it's cool enough to try.

That flagship app you are looking for seems to be https://nft.storage/ (by Protocol Labs).

And make free uploads to it here: https://nft.storage

Diagram Roughly like this. I use https://nft.storage/ for all my nft projects

NFT.Storage is a counterpart to Web3.Storage for a specific purpose: a place to safely store and save your NFTs. Many people use IPFS with their NFTs personally, or using other services as well

1. Sites like https://nft.storage/ (which I dislike as they have a silly bug with content types) or Pinata also got to IPFS.

2. Good point.

Btw you can check: https://nft.storage/

https://ipfs.tech/ combined with https://nft.storage/

Lastly upload your Metadata JSON to Decentralized Object Storage like IPFS, NFT.Storage or Pinata. You may also use a Centralized Object Storage service like AWS S3. Make sure to record the metadata object URI returned from your storage service of choice. We shall use it while minting the NFT.

For just a handful of images (aka manually processing them) you could also use https://nft.storage/

btw I tried on opensea testnet and used nft.storage for ipfs
