Is it possible to host a lemmy instance over I2P?

  Yes, the problem is how does a clearnet instance send you content to your equivalent of an onion address?

    You would need the server to point to both I2P and Clearnet. This is possible, but the server looses it’s obscurity.

      Why is this always the go-to answer. I kind of wish we’d stop asking it must sync to the clearnet.

      Honestly if Lemmy (and other services) were built from the ground up for anonymous overlay networks rather than clearnet in the first place it would be a better place overall.

      I think in theory you could do it if you had a separate relay, you might only need one for the entire I2P Lemmy community. The relay would always be exposed to some degree but it’s just a relay so it’s not going to attract too much attention, especially if the operators were smart and didn’t sync spicy communities to the clear net
