What @supervent@lemmy.dbzer0.com said. Basically you get access to the I2P network (overlay on top of the regular internet) that provides anonymity and doesn't require any port forwarding. Thus, this allows every user to seed torrents without worrying about opening ports or getting letters in the mail.

The torrent space on I2P is still growing, there are some chads cross-seeding to the I2P network allowing for torrenting popular torrents over I2P.

Careful copying the 5th one. Markdown caused it to render the URL differently.

This should force the correct URL to render:

Yes, I believe that the Syncthing protocol doesn't bring security concerns, but some people may wish to hide their IP and device info from being "exposed". I know Syncthing has some data collection which you can opt out of.

I think a benefit of this post is to show that you can self-host applications and use the I2P network to connect to your services while bypassing issues like CGNAT. Hopefully, it helps spark ideas to host more services on I2P as well.

Glad to see that working still! Torrenting over I2P is sort of a fail-safe option for people in somewhat oppressive places where VPNs may be illegal. Also, with the recent port-forwarding removal in Mullvad, this makes it harder moving forward to try and seed content without being able to make a direct connection with open ports.

Love to see it. Can always use more I2P.

notbob.i2p and identiguy.i2p have been my go to as they provide uptime stats and show the reliability of that eepsite. Seems like many people set up a registered eepsite just for testing or the short-term and don't intend for longevity, but you can find some eepsites with normal names like "git.idk.i2p" and assume it will have better uptime.

Eepsites that provide similar "stats" can be found here: http://notbob.i2p/cgi-bin/defcon.cgi?category=stats

"Alive" hosts can be found here: http://reg.i2p/alive
