I am not a frequent IPFS user either but it seems like crypto and NFT scams masked and eventually destroyed a lot of potentially interesting tech.

It requires a local application and an extension, I think. I found the documentation to be confusing as somebody not familiar with IPFS and eventually gave up on it because I couldn't figure out what the right settings were for me or what the options meant privacy-wise. I also wasn't willing to sink a lot of time or effort into it, because I have enough on my plate generally and I wasn't sure what the benefits were for me.
