Create a “best practices for busy builders” page.

[lidel]

We have some features which are disabled or are not defaults yet, but we encourage people to use them.
Having a single link with a list of such suggestions for busy builders could be handy

Topic ideas:

• use cidv1 for future-proof addressing, and use in case-insensitive contexts
• enable pubsub if you need fast IPNS
• enable GC if your data churn is expected to be high
• use subdomain gateways or DNSLink when publishing apps for secure context and origin isolation
  • FAQ / protips around using own domain, as noted in How to turn an IPFS node into a gateway node. #788 (comment)

@johnnymatthews I'll take this one. I think this is the last of the IPFS "good first issues," so I might as well finish them up, before I move on to others.

[Annamarie2019]

@lidel how does pubsub provide "fast IPNS"? Is it a kind of workaround?, so instead of enabling IPNS, just do a quick pub or sub on the fly? (Page almost done, PR: #1079)

[RuniteOre]

@Annamarie2019 Pubsub can provide faster IPNS by pushing records over it. The first publish would still take a long time because you would need to advertise the topic into the DHT, but it will happen much faster.

[lidel]

Yep, "IPNS over Pubsub" can be enabled via CLI flag (legacy way) or config (current best practice):
https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/blob/master/docs/experimental-features.md#ipns-pubsub

We don't have it enabled by default because we have no mechanism for unsubscribing from topics that were not used for a while. There is a tracking issue for remaining work: ipfs/kubo#8591

[Annamarie2019]

@lidel One more question: For the ipfs config --json Ipns.UsePubsub true, you left the link to ipfs pubsub ipfs pubsub for its subcommands. I'm thinking that that's no longer relevant, or is it? Please confirm and I'll take it out.
(BTW, we're having a little trouble reconciling the changes in the PR, so I may need to create a new PR, but I've saved yours and Johnny's suggestions and the rest of the text.)
