For most use cases you can host everything on I2P.
There are some caveats though:
- The network is rather slow (but not too slow in my opinion)
- You need to configure your router or you device to access the I2P net

This one will be a bit trickier because of federation. Maybe it is even impossible. But for git hosting, website hosting, email, your cloud, various chats software or torrents this should work good.

Email will work?
Most ppl use clearnet !!

Your smtp will still be able to connect to other services afaik. Its just about the hosted website.

The performance is absolutely abysmal and the error-rates high. For personal use, just have a normal VPN.

Have you tried it after the recent updates? They added ddos protection so now the network isn’t nearly as vulnerable to attacks. Before they were getting hit over and over by some large actor who seemed to want to break i2p routing.

I just meant it as a static domain to host stuff. If you don’t care about anonymity you can just reduce the hops and it will get fairly stable.
