If there were a Lemmy.i2p instance, would you use it? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

If I ever have enough money, I’m thinking of setting up my own small server and migrating Lemmy to I2P. A Lemmy instance with the same features, but running on a completely free and anonymous network. Everything will be allowed except for moderation regarding serious topics and spam. It’s a nice thought, even just imagining it.

How can you be so sure? There is a reddit clone on i2p already and it's very slow

Users will, of course, have to accept that I2P is slow. Still, by using i2pd, optimizing the number of tunnels, and opting for a minimalist web interface, I can create a Lemmy instance that’s quite useful for the I2P community. I’ll make sure it’s a PWA. I can implement aggressive caching.
