You too can contribute to I2P, fellow anonymity supporter

https://www.ovhcloud.com/en/vps/

Pick Ubuntu 22.04 as your OS and follow the instructions on https://geti2p.net/en/download/debian

You can ssh -L 7657:localhost:7657 ubuntu@yourhostname, login with the password you from the link you got in the email, then open http://localhost:7657 and configure your I2P instance. For the bandwidth, you can enter 12500 up and 12500 down (100Mb/s = 12500 KB/s) with a 90% share (if you aren’t using the VPS for anything else).

You can also add more tunnels on http://localhost:7657/configtunnels . For more information on tunnel types (exploratory and client) see https://geti2p.net/en/docs/how/peer-selection .

    The problem is you are centralizing the service. Its better to run it on your own hardware.

      I disagree. There are thousands of providers with better bandwidth and speed than many home connections. Also, the providers are all over the globe. That’s hardly “centralized”.

      But if you have 100Mb/s up, by all means, do participate. With a slower line, you slow everybody down and IMO you do more harm than good.
