Honestly I'm unsure, Since most i2p-portable projects I know are way out of date now, including Prestium. I believe that you can run I2Pd-Browser on an external flash drive directly, but idk about running a daemon on portable mode.

If you already figured out a proper solution, a clarified reply would really be appreciated. I'm also wondering how to run I2P on an external storage; whether under a windows or a Linux system.

If you read the column heading again, you'll notice that the visibility relates to ownership of the torrents, not your IP address. In other words, your login name will appear next to the torrents you have uploaded. There is an option to hide your username if that's desirable, but otherwise, nothing is visible to other users.

tuckit can be used to do this sort of thing http://git.simp.i2p/simp/TuckIt

it uses either mktorrent or torf to hash torrents. if you just need that functionality to automate things maybe seeing what's going on http://git.simp.i2p/simp/TuckIt/src/branch/main/modules/torrent_functions.py could help.

you could check a directory every so often and give one of these things the location of any new files, then have it symlink the data files to the torrent client directory then move the .torrent file in. http://git.simp.i2p/simp/i2music/src/branch/main/updateplaylists.py is doing other things, but this is what it does starting line 678

Any I2P-capable torrent client should be able to create torrents. If you're running i2pd, try I2PSnark Standalone, either the + or "vanilla" version. If you're running a Java-based I2P, you'll already have I2PSnark available.

You're Welcome, I haven't heard of this project before, so I can't say if you should use it or not. I usually just use Invidious/Piped instances, and sometimes Freetube as well, however It's still a good thing that there are alternatives. For Tube, If you already compiled it and it works well with you, let me know if it's worth the build.

Curiously, I was wondering if there were any clients written in Rust, and I found this. It uses Tauri and I like the fact this it is way less bloated and more efficient than Electron clients (e.g. Freetube). Though, the RustyTube project is still in its early stages, but still sounds cool to give it a try nonetheless.

Well, you just answered your own question. Tube.i2p used to be an anonymous YT frontend, but in reality it was so slow and unreliable, so don't even bother.

If you need to, you can simply use an outproxy and connect directly to any YT frontend of your choice that is near you; would be more reliable than an eepsite/hidden-service. It's also a good idea to create a separate profile for your outproxy use-cases, especially for installing extensions like Libredirect, Sponsorblock, etc..

we're at a lvl far removed from the inner workings. evrything could be propaganda lies, west and east. the tidbit about "unknown encrypted data packets" triggering "pre-implanted backdoors" in windows is funny. thnk these are target based or exist widely on every windows installation? waiting for a neutral security auditor to find and expose?

i wonder what incentives lie in wait for such an auditor.. $$$ and recognition, or something more sinister
