Kubo v0.36.0-rc1 is out!

This release aims to make Kubo more efficient, stable, and user-friendly for high-traffic retrieval operations.

Highlights:

  • HTTP Retrieval Client is Enabled: Blocks now retrieved over HTTPS by default, if the provider supports trustless HTTP retrieval of blocks (GET /ipfs/cid?format=raw)
  • Reduced Bitswap Broadcasts: Dramatically cuts network traffic (up to 80-98%) and bandwidth (up to 50-95%), lowering operational costs and improving IPFS Mainnet stability long term.
  • Smarter AutoNATv2/AutoTLS: Leads to fewer node startup errors due to improved NAT and public address detection.
  • Enhanced File/Gateway: Includes ipfs files cp overwrite for files and negative HTTP Range request support for gateways.
  • Improved Filestore: Ability to manually remove bad blocks and heal filestore.
  • Configurable Connection Management: Exposes ConnMgr.SilencePeriod for finer control over libp2p connections.
