IPFS is unfortunately not durable, nor very reliable when attempting retrieval through IPFS (versus a gateway, such that Cloudflare offers).

IPFS allows for more durability than the traditional way people point to content on the internet.

You can attach a IPFS hash to your NFT (or w/e) while still using clients that use a more reliable gateway.
