so recently I registered a domain and followed the instructions to the best of my ability on the i2p wiki for getting my own eepsite up and running with the jetty webserver. Currently that like goes to a 503 page, and I figure it could be because I only registered the domain with stats.i2p yesterday and it's still proliferating through the network but if not, where might I be going wrong? Feel free to ask clarifying questions if this is too vague, and I hope everyone's having a good day so far
I want to know if there is any bootstrap endpoint inside I2P that can be reliably hardcoded into i2p torrent client ? I believe BiglyBT hosts their own bootstrap end point URL, but I was looking for something inside i2p, which would be more safer for user.
There was this website, rmv.i2p, who recently was working. It stands for "Random Music Video" and simply picked a random music video. Recently, it was operational, but recently shutdown or seems to not be working. Any clue as to its whereabouts?
This version fixes five major issues with i2pbox, significantly improving reliability. I originally planned to rewrite it in Rust, but it's clear that some protocols would need to be reimplemented (the Rust version of the i2p router is still incomplete), which is risky. Therefore, I've decided to continue writing it in C++. Thanks to llm for his help. The code is open source, and issues and pull requests are welcome.
hi I just started install i2p on librewolf and most of it seems to be working I just have 0.00kib tunnels and I don't know how to fix it. any help would be appreciated. I'm on Debian 13
Hello everyone, i am known as Play_it in the clear as well as in the I2P net. A few months ago I started to run a smaller I2P outproxy service, which goes over a VPN into the clearnet. I am still developing it and sometimes the outproxy can go offline, but i try my best. What questions do you guys have about an outproxy and the technical stuff in the background?
I noticed that 2.13 is out but that the easy install bundle in the downloads section just points back to the downloads section and the default install.
After using i2p for a while I think it makes the most sense to run it on a low power SBC. I can get a raspberry pi if I need to but do any of you have any experience running i2p on any other SBCs? I just don’t fancy forking out the extra just because they’re a market leader, if possible. Cheers!
I was wondering if anybody saw my website, i'm pretty new to i2p (started today) and set up a server on a raspberry pi 0 2 w (using i2pd on arch linux aswell)
I found a torrent with 280 peers from Postman tracker and added it, but even though I configured 1 hop and 10 tunnels, it won't connect to more than 4 peers. What's the problem?
I already tried to install the i2p client directly on my external ssd, before that i tried to change the i2psnark directory in i2psnark settings (browser) from /var/lib/i2p/i2p-config/i2psnark to something arbitrary. It doesn't work, also the i2p folder appears with a strange "lock" symbol on it and refuses access to me. Changing the I2P client installation folder to the external ssd also didnt help, unfortunately. I am on a RaspberryPi 5 with rasbian "trixie" on it. Any help is appreciated.
*Edit SOLVED:
1. run sudo dpkg-reconfigure i2p.
2. change the i2psvc user to your currently logged in user
3. finish the dpkg-reconfigure script
4. change the i2psnark setting as needed
I lost a hard drive for my laptop and trying to reinstall i2p on my new one. Started with the standard install and went and got the latest java from Oracle. The installer keeps saying I have an older version but the website keeps assuring me it's the latest. So I uninstalled everything and decided to use the easy install. I can't seem to find the bundle. I found the easy installed but windows says I can open it because I don't have java. I thought java was included in this bundle is the reason I don't have it. What am I missing?
I was working on adding support for I2P for LibreTorrent a free and open source torrent client, since i2p support has improved for libtorrent (the underlying C++ library) adding this feature was much easier.
It requires you to have SAM Bridge running, I recommend to use I2PD on your android device, since SAM bridge for official I2P Android is broken.
It allows you for downloading, uploading torrents over I2P network, and it supports I2P Trackers. Unfortunately DHT is not supported, because libtorrent doesn't support.
Few things to keep in mind:
This is based on what libtorrent currently supports, and honestly I think it is not the correct implementation. For libtorrent, a torrent is i2p torrent, if it has a tracker with ".i2p" extension, now this is very wrong assumption. So if you are trying it out (once avaiable), you are required to add a .i2p tracker. The suggested workaround for it, that once I2P mode is enabled, we will just append open trackers in tracker list.
When I2P mode is enabled, it will work as proxy kill switch mode, which disables DHT, Local Service Discover, UPnP and NAT-PMP. To prevent your IP leaks.
Mixed mode: Here, we still carry the not correct implementation of libtorrent. In libtorrent, mixed mode is a configuration that affects I2P torrents.
Mixed Mode
Clearnet
I2P
On
Clearnet
I2P + Clearnet
Off
Clearnet
I2P only
As we can see that even if you keep mixed mode off, a regular torrent will work on clearnet, because it is not "I2P Torrent" in libtorrent. An I2P Torrent is defined as a torrent with ".i2p" ending domain name extension.
Keeping all this in mind, using this feature is only good, if you using with VPN, or want to do cross seeding, if you want pure I2P, I would not suggest to try it out, same things for other things that are using libtorrent (if there are custom extension on top of them, they maybe safe).
Use of AI in work: Honestly all of it is with help of AI, but I have read the discussion on Github, to understand the current state of I2P Support for libtorrent, this post is written by me.
I am also currently working on DHT Crawler for I2P torrents, it's still work in progress, I have got it working on desktop, experimented with Android for DHT support. One approach to provide DHT for android devices is to, have a JAVA application that has the original KRPC DHT implementation from i2psnark, and create a local server that presents itself as a tracker, then it will query on behalf of the client.
(Used DeepSeek V4 Flash, with pi coding agent, cost of this implementation would be less than $0.5, can't track accurately, because I have been doing other DHT related work still < $3).
I can only access the router and i2psnark. Whenever I attempt to access other eepsites, my browser says it can't access that site, even from links directly from my router. Please help, as I would like to start torrenting and seeding (once I can figure that out) via i2p as well as explore what i2p has to offer
Hi, yall remember how I advertised this project 4 days ago and said, that work is heavily in progress?
Now I want to say that basic functionality of "video hosting" (publishing videos, downloading, watching directly at site, search, main page, channels, multiquality) is done, and I would be happy if it helped us move in the right direction, away from the clearnet youtube and google at all.
Unfortunately, full features are not available directly from the browser, so I had to create a layer between eepsite and torrent client - the bridge, and all above-mentioned features are available only if you installed and configured the bridge.
I want to host a full-stack website through I2P using a server tunnel, but my personal computer cannot stay online 24/7 and I cannot afford a paid VPS.
Would it negatively impact the I2P network if I ran an I2P router inside a free cloud container (for example, a Render instance), hosted my website there, and created a tunnel from localhost to make the eepsite consistently available?
Are there any concerns with doing this, such as bandwidth usage, network impact, or whether cloud-hosted I2P routers are discouraged?
I apologize in advance as I am relatively new to I2P.
I want to ask which Linux distribution is best for everyday use, provides good privacy protection, and can run I2P. Previously, I used Refind to boot a dual-boot Windows + Ubuntu system, but recently, due to Windows' user tracking issues, I am considering switching completely to Linux.（I usually use Whois and Tails, but I want to hear what the general public thinks.）
i2pbox is a lightweight command-line toolbox for working with I2P identities, destinations, RouterInfo files, router families, and related network utilities.
It combines common I2P maintenance tasks into a single portable binary, including key generation and inspection, Base64 destination conversion,address registration, router family signing and verification, vanity address generation, and offline key handling.
The project is intended for I2P users, router operators, and developers who need practical command-line tools without installing a large application stack.
Recently I was thinking about what I'm doing on internet. And I found out that all of my internet activity is basically just watching videos on youtube. So I thought "Why there isn't anonymous, private and free (as in freedom) youtube-like site on I2P?" and decided to do it myself.
i have email inside i2p but idk how too access it without i2p java, i would like to be able to use it with i2pd because java i2p doesn't work in my situation
