Based on Making your own ipfs service, it seems there is no way to ask IPFS for peer IDs of everyone (or at least X number of random) using my service? How can I then bootstrap my service? It would be great if I could say: tell me at least X number of other peers using my service. And then I could communicate with them.

There's not really any service discovery in IPFS yet -- we have a few early ideas here: ipfs/notes#15

I am currently using pubsub feature to get peers of everyone subscribed to a topic used by my service.
