Turn off IPFS preloading for now #124

Closed fazo96 closed 6 years ago

fazo96 commented 6 years ago

IPFS Preloading was added recently. In the browser, when content is created, a HEAD call is made to some IPFS servers to make them instantly load the content from the local browser tab.

This does not work with the Chlu Wallet due to our IPFS configuration being completely detached from the IPFS network (we run our own network)

So a lot of HTTP requests get made that end up doing nothing except wasting resources.

Due to https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/issues/1514 we can't disable preload globally and we will disable it on the specific calls

Fully fixed in 0.2.1
