skynet-cli VS homescreen

it's basically in the InterPlanetary File System the base system is used by Akash its fantastic, download the app https://www.akashlytics.com/deploy very low learning and you can host and use cloud computing and storage https://www.akashlytics.com/ for file transfer https://siasky.net/ is great for a different reason .... https://scrt.network/ecosystem/dapps is an amazing new coming feature https://jackaldao.com/ .... the best project for Storage will be jackal coming soon.... I will defo be in on this for many reasons .... privacy and cost

for op, there is a storage blockchain called siacoin. 100gb free and files split between 3 decentralized hosts. seen too many "he died by going 70mph into a tree" stories then the story purged. when the info could have just been posted here https://siasky.net/

The issue is that siasky.net is a public portal/host and anyone can upload files or websites there. This is not really different from other file or website hosts, but unfortunately the company behind siasky.net doesn't have the resources to keep the domain out of all blocklists because they are still pretty small. You can read more about it here: https://blog.sia.tech/the-worrying-depth-and-scope-of-censorship-on-the-internet-ffd4bc5a5486?source=collection\_home---5------0-----------------------

Please, dont remove https://siasky.net gateway domain, we are using for link our CIDs

Not exactly sure, but if you're willing to put in a little bit of development effort, you should be able to build something on top of https://siasky.net

(5) Once you are happy with the result. You just need to upload the folder (where the files are) to https://siasky.net/ via Sinpapeles.xyz.

can be accesses by the siasky.net domain, but what will happend if this domain is down?

You can test Sia via Skynet out at https://siasky.net/

It's not Skynet that is slow, it is siasky.net which is having issues. So it is simply due to the portal you are using to download from. Granted there aren't any alternatives yet for the general public, but there is a skynetpro server that is currently in beta tests and is dedicated to paid users. There is also a number of other third-party run portals that should be coming online relatively soon. Alternatively however you could always choose to run your own portal and have direct access to Skynet and have 100% control of your own data.

In the end, you can download the files and/or upload to siasky.net.

I am not sure if you are aware, but in case you or anyone reading aren't, Skynet and Handshake have been partners for over a year and has full compatibility not only as a decentralized domain service for Skynet sites and apps, but it also works with Homescreen. Give it ago by typing sky-os.hns or riftapp.hns in the Homescreen search bar to install the app. Ethereum Name Service (ENS) and IPFS domains are also compatible with homescreen for those developers that prefer to use those.

There are storage services like Skynet or Filebase that operate on the sia decentralized network that can offer blob/bucket and host applications for a full cdn, but the real innovation is decentralized front ends. Checkout https://homescreen.hns.siasky.net/ its near trivial for developers to copy existing apps to add additional redundancy for circumstances like this.

To begin actually using Skynet as a user however, Homescreen is where you want to start. To begin click the "Authenticate with MySky" button in the top right. A popup window will appear with the option to "Sign Up" at the bottom. Once you have clicked "Sign Up" a MySky account will be created for you, and you will be given a 15 word seed phrase. This seed phrase is now your password to **everything** you accesses on Skynet. So make sure to write down you seed phrase and store it in a safe location. It would also be helpful to sign up for a password manager like Bitwarden so you can securely access your MySky seed from any device. Once you have stored your seed in a safe place, you can click "Sign Up" to complete your account creation. Once completed you will then see your Homescreen with a couple apps preinstalled for you and you can begin using Skynet as it was intended to be.

> I want Web 3.0 to get interoperability back. We badly need commonly accepted standards and decentralized protocols

Check out Homescreen: https://homescreen.hns.siasky.net/

It's a decentralized front-end in a decentralized cloud for Web3.0 apps.

You can already do this on https://homescreen.hns.siasky.net

If you want to see just why I mean by works, go set yourself up a Homescreen account and give it a try. Once you have one set try installing some apps. Also make sure to try out SkyOS
