[galacteek](https://galacteek.gitlab.io) now supports switching between different IPFS networks.

The main IPFS network is now quite large and maintaining a lot of connections is bound to generate high CPU usage for the go-ipfs process. Having the possibility from the browser to switch networks is important i think.

With galacteek you can now select which network you’re connecting to, at the moment there’s only the _Invicta_ network. If you have a network that you want to have listed in galacteek feel free to share it (bootstrap and swarm key if it’s private).
