Does this sound reasonable ?  
ipfs cluster provides better features and stats of the cluster,  
Should we make this, you can count me as interested in doing so 🙂

Maybe this thread can be of interest: [[COMMUNITY DISCUSSION] IpfsCloud v2.0 Draft](https://discuss.ipfs.tech/t/community-discussion-ipfscloud-v2-0-draft/5420)

Especially the part about [Egress](https://github.com/cluster-labs/egress) and its GUI tool : [Horizon](https://github.com/cluster-labs/horizon).

Hope it helps!

You can also have a look at [https://orion.siderus.io](https://orion.siderus.io) and join our chatroom if you have ideas! I am thinking about that constantly and that might be where we want to go next if you want to help!

Though the app is more or less working, Orion as a project has been abandoned. You can read the author’s farewell here: [https://blog.siderus.io/so-long-and-thank-you-for-all-the-fish-ca9060f32df6](https://blog.siderus.io/so-long-and-thank-you-for-all-the-fish-ca9060f32df6)

P. S. Sorry for pushing an old post. I have misread the date lol
