Why did Tor win when I2P is superior in basically every aspect?

cringe. and a brief reminder (to those that can read english fluently):

this was over 10 years ago btw. and i fear little has changed.

say hello to the commie losers in their irc channel for me.

Because Tor is state backed.

what's it like posting on 4chan every single day and the only reaction you get is people using you as the public urinal? doesn't it tiring? it looks embarrassing. see you in the 100,000th i2p thread where nobody cares because it's infested with pedophiles and communists

>>109676911
That article has nothing to do with what you are talking about. It is about security vulnerabilities for forensic analysis

what did tor win here exactly?
>>
>>109677001
Used by more people. Larger network.
>>
>>109677022
>Used by more people. Larger network.
depending on who you ask that's not automatically a win
It wouldn't take you long to figure out scenarios where you'd want the network to be relatively small
>>
>>109677047
Yeah, I get that. I2p is too small and niche for me. I like TOR because it feels kind of like the internet felt like in the 90s
>>
>>109676868
Because Tor is easier to get into. That's also Tor's biggest problem since the amount of nodes compared to users is absurd.

>>109676911
>>runs entirely off javasir
i2pd
>>funded entirely by russians and chinks
Nope
>>security is literally "trust me bro"
No and the source is easily available to you
>>99% traffic is used to share child porn via i2psnark or whatever that piece of shit was called
Crazy, after years of usage I have yet to find a single piece of porn in general. There must be an insane amount of users if I somehow managed to avoid finding porn at all.
>>
what exactly do you guys use TOR for at all? 99% of sites are hostile towards it and many darknet markets are the same — honeypots controlled by feds — and the forums, like dred are dead
>>
>>109676868
you can't just instantly browse the regular internet like with tor browser.
it also doesn't have a simple "i2p browser" like tor has tor browser.
if it had an i2p browser and a nice looking website, it would have more users.

>>109676932
they're both pedophile networks, you pedo.

Does i2p even work over cgNAT?
>>
>>109676911
There was absolutely nothing truly shocking or not a matter of common sense in that paper you posted. Did you even read it yourself?
>>
>>109677786
If you have IPv6 that works with I2P but there aren't anywhere near as many IPv6 routers participating in the network. If you have IPv6 then you should help by participating in the network.
>>
>>109676868
Tor is (((((backed by the US gov))))). Don't you hear the echo on these words?
>>
>>109677001
They made an onion plush
Where is I2P plushy? They have none

How do you mean?
>>
>>109678608
He means onion services. Similar to how you can host shit over i2pd (only that's literally the only point of i2pd because their are no exit proxies unless you can find some random persons proxy they provide over i2pd)
>>
>>109678621
*I2P the protocol, I mean. Brain fart there, i2pd is of course the daemon.
>>
>>109678621
So instead of paying for domain names and worrying about renewing ssl certs he hosts his webpages as onion sites?
I guess that's one way to do it.
>>
>>109678739
I know some people use onion services for private SSH access instead of exposing their server publicly for the botnet to bang on. It can be pretty convenient.

Also, it's good as a backup. When Cloudflare went down worldwide I was able to still access the stuff I self-host over TOR since I maintain onion mirror.
>>
>>109677745
This
TOR is pretty much dead and has no use case anymore
It's unfeasible to use TOR browser as a clearweb proxy because the vast majority of sites don't work properly with it, even if you enable javascript and everything else
Onionspace also went down the drain during the last 5-6 years or so. All darknet onion sites nowadays are either jeet-tier scams, or honeypots
Performance on most exit nodes is also getting gradually worse and it's getting back to the age of dial-up speeds.
>>
>>109678765
I have this set up too. I even doubled up on the tinfoil by adding a client identification cert as well.
>>
>>109676932
Pointing something out doesn't imply that it's good or bad. Projects that get perpetual funding are much more likely to succeed than unfunded ones.
>>
>>109676868
Nobody has any actual use for any of these memes
>>
>>109677745
Spending 3 weeks downloading a single source code leak so that I can pack it into a torrent and seed it on i2p faster.
>>
wasn't this supposed to be the future of the internet or some shit? what happened.
>>
>>109679545
Have not heard of it in ages.
My guess is this: corpos control it in every single aspect, both the standard and the most used implementation, hardware and software and networks.
>>109676916
They're both run by cops.
>>
>>109679545
They doubled down on Filecoin and now IPFS is neglected as fuck. A shame because it had so much potential.
>>
>>109676868
Because if your ip address is even kind of hosting shit it's way worse than just being a relay.
>>
>>109676868
why do you assume "better" thing should automatically "win"? you twelve or something?
>>
>>109680379
But you're not hosting anything on I2P?

the answer is comically complicated
