Got it, thanks. I've added a comma-separated list now, of all 3. Thanks again!

Yeah well it happens. keeping more outproxies as a backup is a good thing nonetheless. Happy Browsing!

Currently, using http://isitup.i2p/result/ae4b19ee it seems to be down?
I have purokishi.i2p and outproxy.acetone.i2p working though...

Indeed, Stormycloud Is by far the most solid outproxy and hopefully it stays that way. If you wanna do like me, you can just add all three outproxies and the router normally resolves itself (separated by a "comma-space").

I have set up an outproxy on several machines recently, both stormycloud standard exit and purokishi worked. I did have to wait for a while before everything was stable and I could reliably send trafic through them though

I am actually curious at how these would even be self-hosted(you know for personal experience on my part)

This reddit thread helped me add purokishi to my address book:
http://shreddit.i2p/r/i2p/comments/hcezcq/new_i2p_outproxy_service_purokishii2p/
Now it seems that purokishi.i2p works as well!

Hey I have a question: on the right hand side of these forums there is a section "Outproxies" which contains:
- outproxy.acetone.i2p
- purokishi.i2p
- stormycloud.i2p
I noticed that stormycloud.i2p does not work, bui that seems to be because the correct address is exit.stormycloud.i2p
Could it be that purokishi.i2p also has a different actual name?

So, I managed to get outproxy.acetone.i2p working but it is extremely slow. I am trying exit.stormycloud.i2p now which seems to be faster. Thank you!

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

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

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 The easiest way to get the most out of I2P: Update your subscription lists and change your outproxy. by Rambler
I am trying to follow these instructions and (1) has worked: I have the new list of subscriptions and I can see my address book populating with lots of new sites.
I have a problem with step (2): it seems that purokishi.i2p is not reachable for some reason. I this outproxy outdated? What can I use instead?

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...

Reply to comment by Chronic in I2PSnark torrents "Visible" by z3w
I understand but I have at least one other torrent where the owner name is note hidden and it does not appear on that list. So my question...

Reply to I2PSnark torrents "Visible" by z3w
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.

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.

Reply to I2PSnark torrents "Visible" by z3w
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.

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.

Thanks Chronic. Think I can use https://git.mills.io/prologic/tube from here since it seems a bit more useful and stuff? I'm sure it could be worth a try hosting a separate video host or something.

- Nope, the site doesn't work with either because it is already down.
- I2pd rocks, and so as the other clients, as long it works well with whomever uses them.

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..

i2pd offers a http proxy server, it works well.
i2pd is great, if you are ok with flat config files and no limits.

don't self-host this sort of thing publicly, even if you don't register it it will be found, use an encrypted leaseset
similar to tor exit node, http://zzzmirror.i2p/topics/3254 is a good read
tl;dr tinyproxy or 3proxy (there are others), haproxy could be used for load balance, privoxy not be good with lots of connections, zero hops allow for more multihomes and more speed/less latency
acetone is 1 hop, stormycloud and purokishi are both zero hop ( i think)
