Reply to comment by Chronic in I2P+ 2.9.0+ released by z3d

if you want to do more in i2p than browse and download torrents i'd give it a try :) i2pd is lightweight and feature bare, i2p+ is kind of the opposite

Reply to Problem with outproxy by privacy_is_dead

welcome to i2p

purokishi is a good working outproxy last i checked, though the default outproxy is stormycloud: exit.stormycloud.i2p. outproxy.acetone.i2p is also one to try

Reply to I2P+ 2.9.0+ released by z3d

That's awesome. I am currently using I2Pd with I2PSnark-Standalone already, so is I2P+ worth the replacement? Also, the image is really fitting. I would guess that it's generated using Stable Diffusion.

Reply to comment by Chronic in I2PSnark torrents "Visible" by z3w

Finally, today the list was cleared. So I guess it has more something to do with the fact that I'm the only seeder or not.

I've uploaded some more torrents and some are now 'Visible' and some not, and non of them had been post as anonymous. So it's still a bit obscure...

This is only related to others peers knowing about the uploader of the torrent files, not the uploader's IP address. When you upload a Torrent on the Postman Tracker, you can decide whether to upload the torrent as an anonymous uploader or with your Username. In this case your username is visible, and that's alright.

Reply to Is it possible to install I2P in portable mode under LINUX? by underk

Honestly I'm unsure, Since most i2p-portable projects I know are way out of date now, including Prestium.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.

Reply to comment by Oaloo in Methods for creating torrents to seed? by Oaloo

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

Reply to Methods for creating torrents to seed? by Oaloo

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.

Reply to comment by j8810kkw in A curious thing about tube.i2p by j8810kkw

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..
