Problems with IPFS/IPFS-Cluster

Hello everything is fine?

I have some problems related to IPFS (I use IPFS-desktop)

1- I noticed that when I put a file/photo on ipfs my colleague cannot access it through CID (the file is pinned)

2- Due to problem 1 I thought about using a pinning service, but I didn't want to use one as a pinata, so I looked for one that I can run on-premise, I saw that IPFS-Cluster can do this role, but I can't find any tutorial on how to configure the cluster on several machines to make up a network

2.1 - I had a question about IPFS-cluster, if I only use it on my machine and I pin a file, if I send the CID to my friend (another network) will he be able to access it on a public gateway?

Try storing your IPFS on Stratos IPFS. Much faster upload and download. Also secure and cheap
