For now, I'm using ipfs.filebase.io for IPNS, the following was recently updated to ipfs://QmUirC1LZLr7qC9X2ZWtWu1NMZvYXozyS24h4vygBoqZHE (previous=Qmej...B4EM):
* ipns://k51qzi5uqu5dgoonkv12bkl03m8lc7ndfxs3f7j9bthhe5u0boxv5mkx4cjwbz
** HTTP gateway: https://cloudflare-ipfs.com/ipns/k51qzi5uqu5dgoonkv12bkl03m8lc7ndfxs3f7j9bthhe5u0boxv5mkx4cjwbz
*** (I noticed a different gateway lagged behind and still shows Qmej...B4EM.)

I don't think Filebase gives me the private key to k51q...jwbz, so I don't actually own that IPNS name. Didn't see that key at console.filebase.com; however, it doesn't really matter since I should have all of the data that it points to pinned locally. Why do this? In order to have one link to all of the CIDs that I have online which are easily accessible (low latency), and I can add/remove/rotate them and still use that same link. Run:
$ ipfs files ls /a; ipfs files ls /a | wc -l; ipfs pin ls --type=recursive | wc -l; ipfs pin ls --type=recursive | sort -R | sed "s/ .*//g" | xargs -d "\n" sh -c 'for args do echo $args; ipfs files cp /ipfs/$args /a/$args; done' _; ipfs files ls --long / # or instead of "/a/$args", something like "/a/$(date +%s.%N)"

>The --checksum option is apparently useless.
If ran with --checksum: it takes a while to start uploading a 5GB file. If ran without --checksum: it start uploading a 5GB file almost immediately. Why the delay when ran with it? I suspect that it hashes the file before uploading, maybe it does this to check for I/O errors. But in that case it would be faster to run an equivalent to "cat $file > /dev/null". I didn't see any skipping based on checksum as described by the docs, so this is another example of the ia cli program being not very good (lacking in functionality and documentation).
