   @Saki I like I2P. I use it for my torrenting activities, it is great---no need for VPNs for torrenting anymore.

   However, Tor has its own advantages, being more reachable by a greater number of people who might not be as tech savvy as us, is one of them. Like it or not, Tor's abundant exit nodes is one other advantage that it has over I2P. In the case of something like mitra.social microblogging service, if one hosts a onion-only instance of it, Tor allows him to federate with clearnet peers over the exit nodes, and thus allow the onion-only instances of mitra/pleroma to be also in connect with the greater fediverse.

   >the Tor network relies on a relatively small number of “centralized” node operators.

   Any sources that makes you say that?

     @k4r4b3y You can configure your instance to talk to I2P instances.

     federation.i2p_proxy_url in config

     Tor and I2P are not mutually exclusive.

     @silverpill Maybe I should do that. Is there any poasters from I2P mitra/pleroma/fedi-sphere?

     @k4r4b3y No. Your server can receive the message but it can't figure out who sent it because the sender is an i2p host.

     @silverpill Currenlty my mitra server doesn't support I2P. If he posts something under your mention, am I going to be able to see it?
