>So every IPFS website is going to be https://HASH.ipfs.dweb.link/?

If someone sets up an IPFS DNSLink record for their domain, then it's just accessible directly from their domain. The user goes to https://example.com, and if they have a normal browser, they fetch it as normal, and if they have the ipfs extension, they fetch it over ipfs instead.

(There is also support for https://hash.ipfs.dweb.link/, but as I said, I don't think that's what people should give to users if they can avoid it. Though that does have the nice benefit over dat:// links in that it works for normal browsers even if your web server goes down.)
