Feature Request: Add link to pinning service compliance github pages summary in ipfs-webui pinning popup #30
Comments
@lidel IIRC, we've talked about this previously, but I don't believe we've documented anything about it at all. |
PR is out for short-term fix: ipfs/ipfs-webui#1943 |
the short term fix is done since ipfs/ipfs-webui#1943 was merged. |
Been thinking about user flow here, and I am unsure what is the value in showing this in pinning popup – user's will be just annoyed, feels like GDPR cookie noise a bit 🙈 😅 What if.. we remove it from this popup and add it to the Pinning Services section in Settings, so it is shown not only when user adds a new one, but every time they look at that table? |
I think it would make sense in both places. @juliaxbow any thoughts? Lmk if you need more context |
Assuming there are real risks to inadvertently selecting a non-compliant pinning service, I'm +1 to including help text/linking out to compliance reports in the pop up. Users won't be required to take action (ie acknowledge or close out of a window) so it won't be as annoying as GDPR notices. That said, I also realize that you can't add new pinning services in the pop-up and users should be encouraged to do compliance checks at the stage of adding a new service. So, an alternative to consider is to add help text along the lines of
This solves for another kink in the current user flow, in which a new user goes to pin something and doesn't understand their pinning options beyond their local node unless they find their way to the settings page. |
I think that’s a good approach. I want to clarify that one thing i wanted to cover with this issue was displaying compliance percentages next to the provider. If we show percentagss, and a provider becomes less compliant, a user who has already added that service will be aware. If we only ever show/link to compliance results when adding a provider then providers can change at any time with little disincentive. |
In the ipfs UI files page, you can select to pin your ipfs files.
(When we show remote pinning services) We should link to the pinning-service-compliance results pages so that users can make a more educated decision.
