Finally, I can easily run my own IPFS gateway (LAN only). I'm running it in HPC since trying to run it in MPC "always" had some weirdness happen. It's easy to do:
1. Edit $IPFS_PATH/config
2. The default gateway address is 127.0.0.1:8080 which is localhost and only accessible to that computer.
3. Change that to 10.0.0.222:8080 or whatever local IP address that you can reach anywhere on your LAN (e.g., running an Apache HTTP Server to see files on your HDD anywhere on your LAN - use that IP).
4. Test it. https://gateway.pinata.cloud/ipfs/Qmdsox6XkeogSeWqsECEAWUNsamZhvZTVVQtAFYSGbJ5zZ/ is 99.9% identical to http://10.0.0.222:8080/ipfs/Qmdsox6XkeogSeWqsECEAWUNsamZhvZTVVQtAFYSGbJ5zZ/ - basically or actually is visually and source-code identical.

Comparison: using Apache Server to access FUSE-mounted IPFS vs. using your own local IPFS gateway. Apache Server looks little like a gateway - for example, http://10.0.0.123/apacheipfs/Qmdsox6XkeogSeWqsECEAWUNsamZhvZTVVQtAFYSGbJ5zZ/folders/1i7nqeL8lSLElPoxwTsP2MrQVO57MxIa_/mlp.heartshine.xyz/ doesn't show the CID of each file and folder (so can't get that info from that). More importantly, I think a local gateway loads folders significantly faster (maybe it loads files faster too).
