New feature: customize your Public Gateway

The gateway at ipfs.io is provided on a best-effort basis to the community, but using a centralized gateway and domain name acts as a single point of failure. Recently, we've experienced ipfs.io outage due to DNS block issued by a domain registrar. This prompted review of our stack and helped us identify low-hanging fruits that could mitigate bad UX for users going forward.

In this release, we enable users to customize the public gateway. It is used for things like generating Shareable Links on the Files screen, and providing a fallback download option when preview using local gateway is not possible.

Settings screen, ipfs-webui v2.13.0

Give it a try with one of many public gateways.
