But do you?

This seems to be making the rounds, but I doubt Google usage will drop at all. It wouldn't surprise me if the people affected by this even avidly use Google Chrome as their main browser.

This is great news! It shows that even with open source you can make a vibrant and valuable business. Just like Redhat and Canonical and probably a few other companies.

Reply to What do you i2p for? by not_bob
Honestly, not much yet. I'm waiting on services from the clearnet to be accessible on I2P. Also, it's really slow so besides text and images, I can't consume videos reasonably. They'd have to load for a few minutes before being watchable.
I2P doesn't have that killer app or service yet. It needs something like PopcornTime or Napster (yeah, I'm old) that can excite the masses. People don't care about privacy or anonymity, just that stuff looks nice, is free and works fluidly; that's what I2P needs.
What would y'all consider a killer app for I2P?

There was facial recognition tech in school? Are all children assumed to be guilty now? Just throw them in jail at birth then.

It's a public institution you are forced to go to.
Because of corona lots of children had classes from home with a camera pointed at their face, anyway
Once again, forced. Forcing people to do one thing and then justifying something else because "obviously they're OK with the latter" is not a very good argument.
Do you think forcing somebody to look at a camera means:
- they will comprehend what's being said
- they will hear what is being
- that they are paying attention
- that the material they are being show is good
?

How do you run multiple routers?
abralelie said ()
It's definitely faster now! I was surprised and initially thought it was my I2P router than suddenly decided to speed up..
Nice to know the priority option exists!

Reply to Would you post on a forum that has an embedded element that calls a 3rd party style sheet that's hosted on a forum member's personal site? by Rambler
Don't ublock and umatrix block resources from external sites by default? The whole website might show up as a jumbled mess for me. I always try to keep the number of 3rd party request low and especially if the website isn't important to me, I'd stop using it if it required too many external resources.
Plus, if they're that lax about security, who knows what else is lurking? Wouldn't surprise me if their ssh user and password were admin:passw0rd!
or something.
P.S I'm glad that's not what you were suggesting to use here because then I'd have quit immediately.

Reply to Before/After some router optimizations. Definitely pushing more network traffic now. by Rambler
What kind of optimisations are we talking here? I'm curious? Is this an entirely different router (i2pd?) or modifications in the standard java router?
My bad... I'm dumb. I2P+

Reply to comment by not_bob in Any MuWire users here? How's your experience been? by abralelie
Maybe I should try it out when I have something I need again 🤔
abralelie said ()
You're probably running Ubuntu or Debian, right?
I'd shutdown the node and simply tar
/var/lib/i2p/
, install I2P on the new device, make sure it's off, rm -rf /var/lib/i2p
, untar your backup archive and chown -R i2psvc /var/lib/i2p
(change the owner to the i2p service). Then you can start i2p up again.
Never done that before, but I think that's they only state i2p stores.

It's a service hosted and administered by me, personally, and made available to the community.
I guess I misunderstood that.

Find a good source isn't easy, unfortunately. People believe in Breitbart and other tabloids just because they "aren't mainstream" which isn't a good criteria either.
We need better education to spot fake news and be healthily critical.

I see... so it's not the official i2p code host? Maybe I need to reread that "monotone to git thing" 🤔

Unfortunately, the climate created by the US media has been very successful at dividing the population and making it controllable this way. It reaches outside of the US borders too.
This isn't only a problem on the right either. The left employs the same techniques: making fun of the right, trying to offend "the other side", acting offended and shocked once attacked, retreating to echo chambers, invading spaces that have nothing to do with politics, "you're either with us or you're against us".
Both sides think they're right and refuse to find middle ground. It's happening in so many groups "us vs. them". There are no winners and nobody's completely correct or wrong.

In the same period, dozens of other community network projects have popped up around the country, filling in where commercial ISPs refuse to upgrade aging fiber.
That's surely copper, right? Is there anything beyond fiber available?

Valid concerns, but maybe you misread. This is about GitLab, not Github.
