How many people use i2P per day?

Before you call me a bot. Just stop and think for a second. Beep boo boop. No but really. I'm wondering if it's worth it for me to use i2p. What are some good communities on i2P and is there sequential torrenting sites with a clean interface?

Fast Sharing but slow speeds?

Hi, using I2P With ports forwarded and Network Status OK.

It came to my notice that I am sharing to the network speeds about 500KB/s+ which is great but when I use bandwidth it uses about just 30KB/s and won't get any better.

I2Pd configs on macOS need fixing

I have tried installing both I2Pd from home-brew and as a DMG file and following the instructions to build it.

First I started with the DMG file, after I would run the I2Pd for the first time there was loads of warnings in the terminal it worked as Network Status Firewalled but it was slow going max 1-2 KB/s , I ignored the warnings assuming I need to port forward. After completing port forwarding NTCP2 and SSU2 which took many hours to figure out what I had to port forward as it was not anywhere being explained what it was needed to port forward the network status became OK. Then things started being faster reaching even speeds of 250KB/s but the warnings weren't gone and after I restarted i2pd I realized the NTCP2 SSU2 ports changed.

I went to the config file and set up the ports but nothing was changing and the warnings were all sorts of things and then I realized that the locations that the data are saved on macOS are wrong and this happened with home brew as well.

https://preview.redd.it/teuh6ugxo12e1.png?width=1892&format=png&auto=webp&s=65ed2d48648ed8583bce278b5eaca22c6ccba4b1

After I manually added the conf files and certificates to the Library the warns stopped and the configs applied. Great. However now after a using i2pd after a while the Network Status turns to OK - No Deviators and from that point i2p sites that I try to access load forever and never actually load. then deleted everything and tried brew, same results.

Incredible! BiglyBT I2P/TOR hits close to 600 KBps

I don't know what, why or how did this happen? But it did and I'm amazed by it.

BiglyBT TOR hits close to 600 KBps consistently.

The reason why I'm posting this here is because I'm amazed and secondly, I do want to know the reason for it, if possible to explain.

I'm also wondering if I2P plug-in helped in this case - to - I don't know provide some sort of a bridge or connection to it.

In any case, nice.

Are there any downsides to using I2P?

Hi! I'm interested in trying out I2P since it seems pretty cool, but I wanted to know if there are any potential downsides. I read that, some time ago, people were banned from Wikipedia for using I2P, so I'm curious if there are still any risks. Could using it lead to issues like being banned myself from certain websites or other connectivity problems?

blinded .b32 addresses

How can I know if address like: htw4pvk2k32qfotsooljdfyz5cblp7jg3a75adtfnqfbb7c23y7q.b32.i2p is new or old type? In tor its easy because old ones are not supported and they are significantly shorter.

i2pd creates new ones or old ones if you define a new tunnel?

Remote Connection from client to server

Hello, r/i2p community!

I was hoping someone might be able to help me with an issue I’m facing. I’m trying to establish a remote connection to my server, which is running I2P+, so I can access the service from my main PC without needing to set up the tunnel connection every time.

Currently, I can only connect via an SSH tunnel, which works, but I’d prefer to have it listening on my entire network so I can access it whenever I need. I’ve tried a few solutions, but unfortunately, nothing has worked so far.

If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Thank you very much in advance!

I2P install failing in Debian LXC

I'm trying to install I2P in a LXC container under Proxmox which is based on the Debian 12 template, by following the Debian instructions here Debian/Ubuntu - I2P

but it failed near the end of the process. I don't think the AppArmour errors are critical, I probably just don't have that installed. The dpkg error seems to be the fatal one, but I do have dpkg installed and I can run it and dpkg--configure so I don't know what that failed.

Is setting a per-tunnel hop count of 1 when torrenting over I2P equivalent to torrenting over a VPN (without I2P)?

Specifically, I would like to know in terms of the level of anonymity.
