WebSocket connection to 'wss://node1.preload.ipfs.io/p2p/XXXXX' failed:

So why it need to connect to ipfs? is'nt it a p2p ?

These are preload nodes which just cache content on the network. There are a few of them that the ipfs instance automatically connects to if a default flag is set.

It's not needed and the app should still work just fine without any of these. Connection errors being logged are not uncommon and usually don't mean anything is broken.
