InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
The first reason is that the technical approach (to be fair, the only available at that time) I took back then is doomed. What I did is a fat layer of javascript in an Electron app, that launched go-ipfs and interfaced with it. That led to a huge complexity were the javascript had to extract and mirror a lot of data from go-ipfs. The right way to do it IMHO is to use go-ipfs as a library, implement the features in go and do the UI on top. Electron/Js for the UI can still make sense, as long as it's a thin layer on top of the go code.
The second reason is that I use the few spare time I have on a much more successful project: https://github.com/MichaelMure/git-bug
