Use ipfs as the base for everything.

If you look at orbitdb, you see that they are using ipfs as the base for everything, so it could be a total decentralized solution:

  const ipfs = await IPFS.create()
  const orbitdb = await OrbitDB.createInstance(ipfs)

I say this because orbit has a bad part, which is it doesn't have an account system while gun.js has.

IPFS too slow, and GUN is already p2p and lets you rebuild your own IPFS in a few lines of code: https://gun.eco/docs/Content-Addressing
