contents In an age where the distribution of information is crucial, current file sharing solutions suffer significant deficiencies. Popular systems such as Google Drive, torrenting and IPFS suffer issues with compatibility, accessibility and censorship. This paper introduces DistriFS, a novel decentralized approach tailored for efficient and large-scale distribution of files. The architecture of DistriFS is grounded in three foundational pillars: scalability, security, and seamless integration. The proposed server implementation harnesses the power of Golang, ensuring near-universal interoperability across operating systems and hardware. Moreover, the use of the HTTP protocol eliminates the need for additional software to access the network, ensuring compatibility across all major operating systems and facilitating effortless downloads. The design and efficacy of DistriFS represent a significant advancement in the realm of file distribution systems, offering a scalable and secure alternative to current centralized and decentralized models.
