Bro has to chill. He didn’t specifically mention it, but obviously just uses it for those shiny new Arch Linux (GNU/Linux) ISOs.

I’m not the one who needs to chill: the reporter whose name I redacted does.

I2P is great for privacy but it sloooooow even much slower than Tor from my experience
Maybe there's fast node out there but who knows.... 乁⁠(⁠ ⁠⁰͑⁠ ⁠Ĺ̯⁠ ⁠⁰͑⁠ ⁠)⁠ ⁠ㄏ

If you're using it to browse webpages on the clearnet then yes, it's slower, because that's not the use-case for i2p. I've seen speeds around 1MBit/s which isn't lightning fast, but also not terrible for an anonymous network.

It should be faster unless its under attack. When was the last time you used it?

You may of used it right when it was hit with an attack

Video states it should be way faster.

I hope more people would hop on to i2p. Its really easy to setup.

[–] CAVOK 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Especially with the Easy Install Bundle for Windows. Sets everything up for you.

[–] zer0bitz 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Yup. Linux also was really easy. I have used both.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is there a how to for Linux?
