Beschreibung

When user takes a screenshot or imports files via OS integration, we copy a shareable link to clipboard. However, the content is not present on gateway node until someone requests it, and that leads to bad UX (https://github.com/ipfs-shipyard/ipfs-desktop/issues/1604#issuecomment-707274675).

IPFS Companion sends HTTP HEAD request to trigger data preload.

I believe Desktop should do the same by default, but there needs to be an option to disable preload, in case user wants to avoid non-IPFS traffic coming from their machine.
