Just use I2P and you'll be fine 😴 Even if they decide to stop warning and go straight to trial, or force VPNs to keep logs, you'll be safe with I2P.

I2P and it's sub 100 kb/s speed? Series, games would never finish downloading, but then also only those torrents are accessible through I2P that are published to an I2P tracker, there is no DHT (yet?). Clearnet torrents and clearnet peers are not accessible through I2P.

Or is it something on my end that makes it that slow? ISP download bandwidth is stable and much higher.

I wanted to search for the postman tracker's address, so went to check on notbob.i2p. website unreachable. Isn't this a relatively fairly popular site here?

Edit: on a second try it now loaded in ~10 seconds.
This latency is probably not to much of a problem, but two things:

  • the instability that it couldn't even start loading the site, and it's regularity
  • if a text site with few graphics takes this much time to transfer, bittorrent and movies will be even worse because that's often not compressible
