Hmm, I kinda wish we could upload PDFs and other types of documents to yarn.social, aside from images.
@abucci Actually, there's nothing stopping us from adding this feature. It has come up once or twice before... If there's enough demand for it, let's add it? 🤔

@prologic will the files only be stored on the original pod or federated to all pod following the person(a)?
@darch Ooof, let's be care with the term _federated_ 😅 -- If by that you mean, uploaded "files" will be copied to other Pods? No. Media doesn't currently work like this either. A user that uploads media (audio, video or an image) is stored on that Pod and served up and linked to (if you remember to do so 😅)

@darch @prologic what about mirroring it to IPFS and linking the hash 😛
One thing I think is important here if we decide to add this support, is we need to build an interface around managing user files, with deletion support. I've never been worried too much about the media uploaded to a pod because generally that either comes off your device or its otherwise fairly obvious its some open works just borrowed off the interwebs and uploaded/links. Also if its linked elsewhere I don't care 😅 But uploading arbitrary filesI _believe_ will require a per-User storage, and management interfaces around that 🤔
