Text-only mirror

[WilliamVenner]

English Wikipedia appears to be 333 GB on the IPFS at the time of writing.

I noticed that it seems to include images? Browsing the site certainly includes them.

I would like to contribute to the distributed mirror, but I don't have 333 GB to spare.

Would a text-only mirror be something of interest too?

Perhaps the images could be served from Wikipedia in this mode, instead of from IPFS.
