movie-web was just taken down with all its repos, Yuzu was taken down, then suyu forked it on gitlab and was taken down, countless clones of nintendo games, platform emulators, and a bunch of other things are taken down because they are hosted on the clear web.

If you’re a dev and planning to write software for piracy, host it on I2P!

Is that the only advantage at this point? I feel like you’d have to be downloading/seeding some shady fucked up shit if just using a VPN isn’t enough. Though maybe I’m thinking about this from the pov of someone who mostly leeches their torrents.

I2P is better for P2P stuff. TOR is not. If you are I2P you can also take advantage of anonymous torrents with qbittorrent or the builtin torrent client.

I have a few nodes and the CPU usage is minimal. But there’s also a C++ implementation if you like that better.
