Does anyone know if it’s possible to setup I2P on a local server and then point to that, when setting up the proxy settings in Firefox from your PC?
Yes, absolutely. I have a VPS that runs a i2pd router and I can set my clients to point to my VPS and I am able to use the I2P network. In doing so, I had to make sure I forwarded the correct ports on my VPS so that it would reach the i2pd application. I will do a write up soon.
Thanks, that sounds awesome. This would also allow me to run I2P 24/7, helping the network, instead of having my PC run all the time.
Here is an ansible role you can use to deploy i2pd to linux servers and such: https://codeberg.org/systemfailure.net/ansible_i2pd. Otherwise, on most distros the i2pd package should be able to be installed from the package managers in the terminal.
