This release, I2P 2.6.0, continues our work by fixing bugs, adding features, and improving the network's reliability.

Newer routers will be favored when selecting floodfill routers. I2PSnark received features which improve the performance of PeX(Peer Exchange), in addition to bug fixes. Legacy transport protocols are being removed, simplifying the code in the UDP transports. Locally-hosted destination will be reachable by local clients without requesting their LeaseSet, improving performance and testability. Additional tweaks were made to peer selection strategies.

I2P no longer allows I2P-over-Tor, connections from Tor exit IP addresses are now blocked. We discourage this because it degrades the performance of I2P and uses up the resources of Tor exits for no benefit. If you are a helpful person running both a Tor Exit and I2P we encourage you to continue to do so, using different IP addresses for each. Non-exit relays and Tor clients are unaffected by this and do not need to change anything.

As usual, we recommend that you update to this release. The best way to maintain security and help the network is to run the latest release.

RELEASE DETAILS Changes

  • Router: Increase minimum version for floodfill routers

  • Router: Disable I2P over Tor

  • Address Book: Cache locally hosted destinations

Isn't this what the new Freenet aims for? A truly decentralized, but not necessarily anonymous, network?

Take StreetComplete with you when you're out and do pokemon-style quests while at the same time improve the map of the area you're in.
It's very fun and quite addictive, and the data you're providing is open source so it's not free labour for some huge company.

OpenStreetmap as an alternative to the closed source maps.

OrganicMaps or OsmAnd to navigate and StreetComplete or EveryDoor to improve it.

Currently testing it. 20 peers. 1.5GB. Takes about 20 min.

I don't know why you're getting voted down for sharing your experience. That's not how the voting should work IMHO.

I get that you get an emotional connection and can see them as potential babies, but not real babies right? Aren't a lot of embryos discarded once the ivf is successful? I haven't been through one so you tell me. Losing one or more of those would be very VERY less traumatic than losing one of my born kids. At least to me, losing an embryo, or a few thousand wouldn't even register.

I would love for someone to ask this to anyone who thinks an egg is a baby.

 

There's a file-sharing app using I2P that's been revived. It's currently not under active development, but it is fully functional as-is.

As always, be careful with unknown programs. I take no responsibility for anything related to the program.

The file can be downloaded from within I2P, or here: https://ufile.io/y1uecxev

Most people have shit dads? Really?

I have doubts, but I'm sorry you feel that way.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 7 months ago (3 children)

Very weird. Started with Slackware back in 97 or so. Still not a femboy and no desire to be one.

Maybe if I switched to arch?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

When they took your data without notifying you? What was great about that?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 7 months ago (8 children)

So, basically brexit then.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 7 months ago

Agreed. I mean COBOL is still a thing, and that's a language that's been dead for 30+ years.

This release, I2P 2.4.0, continues our effort to improve the security and stability of the I2P network. It contains significant improvements to the Network Database, an essential structure within the I2P network used for discovering your peers.

The congestion handling changes will improve network stability by giving routers the ability to relieve congested peers by avoiding them. This will help the network limit the effect of tunnel spam. It will also help the network heal during and after DDoS attacks.

The NetDb changes also help secure individual routers and the applications that use them. Routers can now defend against attackers by separating the NetDB into multiple "Sub-DB's" which we use to prevent information leaks between applications and the router. This also improves the information available to Java routers about their NetDB activity and simplifies our support for multihoming applications.

Also included are a number of bug fixes and enhancements across the I2PSnark and SusiMail applications.

As usual, we recommend that you update to this release. The best way to maintain security and help the network is to run the latest release.

Copied from an excellent post by sugarw0000kie on that other site. All credit for the guide to them.

Finally messed around with this and didn't see much about it, feel free to remove if breaking any rules

For this to work you'll need prowlarr, qbittorrent, and the other arrs (radarr/sonarr/readarr etc) and of course i2p router. (You could just use prowlarr to simplify searching for things without sonarr/radarr integration, then you’d just need prowlarr/qbittorrent with i2p)

In prowlarr, we need to set up proxy through i2p. So go settings-->general--> click enable proxy

​ This seems to work

enter your hostname (default 127.0.0.1) and port 4444 or whatever you have your http proxy set to in your i2p install. Make sure to set the ignored addresses with .com/.net etc (* denotes wildcard), so it won't request non i2p addresses through the router, otherwise i believe it will try to search any of your other indexers through i2p which is probably not good

Now you should be able to add Postman tracker like any other tracker in prowlarr as long as it's able to use your router as the proxy

​ aughta come up like this

From here you will need to make sure you have qbittorrent working with i2p. There is a guide floating around for this but to add to that you'll want to get the lt20 version, as the other one (i believe the default download) does not yet offer i2p support

In your i2p router you'll want to make sure your SAM bridge is enabled. Then in qbittorrent go preferences-->connection and enable i2p and put in your router with hostname and port 7656 (i believe that's the default correct me if i'm wrong)

it should look like this, if you don't see this option under "Connection" you probly don't have the lt20 version

Biglybt doesn't seem to have integration with the *arrs, but assuming you have qbittorrent setup with i2p from there it's a matter of going into radarr/sonarr and adding it as a download client like normal.

If you've never done this before, in qbittorrent under Web ui enable the web interface, should be able to leave the ip address blank (or otherwise enter how sonarr/radarr would need to access it) and enter an unused port like 6969. Put in login credentials. go to localhost:6969 or w/e you used and check that you can see the web interface from qbittorrent.

what mine looks like

on sonarr/radarr side, go settings-->download client--> and enter the ip address and port you gave it as well as the username/password. Usually helpful to add a category. Hit the test button to ensure it works

meanwhile in the *arrs

(If you just want to use prowlarr w/o sonarr radarr integration to the steps are the same to connect qbittorrent, just done in prowlarr itself. It can be used like a search engine along with all of your clearnet torrent/usenet indexers this way)

Hope this helps!

 

I'm trying to build a list of interesting people/subjects to follow on mastodon. Do you have any recommendations?

Just a PSA that I2P exists if you want to try out anonymous torrenting. Head over to I2P for questions on how to set it up.

We won’t answer questions that could get us into legal trouble, but I’d be happy to help with more generic I2P things.

There's also a guide on how to use I2P together with BiglyBT for example
