@HariApplogiq does this help? #4256

Hello @HariApplogiq,

js-ipfs is being deprecated in favor of Helia. You can learn more about this deprecation and the corresponding migration guide here.

This current bug or feature request will not be addressed in js-ipfs due to its deprecation. Unfortunately we don’t expect to support it in Helia either.

As a result, we are going to close this issue. If you think we have done this in error, please feel to reopen with any comments in the next week as we will circle back on the reopened issues.

We hope you will consider Helia for your IPFS in JS needs. We look forward to engaging with you more there.

Thanks,
@ipfs/helia-dev
