Thank you very much @cumlord for this post. It was really helpful. I had planned to create an i2p eepsite, but I don't think I can manage that at the moment. I have saved the instructions to my list of future projects. Peace.

Telegram was always a honeypot too, this was evident by the fact that they required a phone number for signup.

Peer-to-Peer and Dark-Web chat apps with algorithmically generated user IDs that are not tied to an email, phone number, or anything else, are the way.

SimpleX, Session, Briar, and Tox are some good ones. (Careful with tox, it's true peer-to-peer, so it reveals your IP to people you chat with)

Reply to comment by z3d in I2P + (Java) Tunnels Failing by righttoprivacy

Thanks z3d!

I did install that earlier upgrade we were talking about on IRC. And for some reason things happened.

I was afraid my router got banned LOL.

I'm just happy the network is okay - and will be trying the other version today! :)

Hey sorry about that downtime :(

I've been having really serious issues on both the server and my laptop also running I2P+ at the moment (100% unusable issues hit both until I find a way to fix it, and had a lot going on lately).

I've been trying different things (nothing changed on my network, no firewall changes) and only was able to post this after bringing i2pd server online today - so I could try to find info out on my issue.

I'm sort of wondering if my routers got banned or something unexpected. I do run a set up with various randomization related things that I wondered if could have triggered it.

I'm really confused as to why my routers aren't working ATM.

Not meaning to go on a rant, but you can in the meantime find the post on clearnet as I'm working on my I2P+ routers (I'm going to jump on IRC now that I have i2pd to use i2p for research / repair efforts).

My I2P java has been having issues building tunnels and keeps saying network restrictions - this might have started 2wk ago but I can't seem to build tunnels long enough to do anything.

Going to try reinstalling i2P+ and hope it fixes my issue, but also blog depends on my install so trying to plan this in a way I won't lose anything.

Until I find a fix (going to reach out to community now that I have a way on i2p with i2pd), you can see the same post on clearnet until I figure this out: https://bmc.link/politictech/selfhosting-i2p-xmpp-servers

Sorry about the unexpected downtime for anyone trying to visit. :(

Hopefully will be able to get the i2p blog back / stable within couple days, as plan to try more tomorrow.

Finally spent some time to get i2p working so I can post again. It's been a few years, but it seems like i2p is still very slow. The post in f/Vocaloid took about 10 mins. Is there a .onion site for Ramble? In my experience .onion sites are faster than this site on i2p.

There are studies that proves more than 3 hops do not increase anonymity (so no privacy gain) I run a tor proxy on the same Qube VM I run i2p to access hidden services from both of them. This way I can connect with more people on Retroshare. This is the only benefit of using the two networks at the same time, but please DO NOT run I2P through Tor and vice versa
