Thanks! I think it would be a good idea to add a short info blobb directly in your main post tho :)
It's not my post so you'd have to ask OP to do that.
Sound like the tor network? Or am I missing something?

Perhaps the main differences are:
Together these provide some additional resilience and protection against traffic analysis compared to Tor, arguably improving security.
Thanks!
Torrents over i2p: yes! Torrents over tor: no!
Different purposes. Tor was intended so you could access the real web anonymously.
I2p the whole thing is an anonymous web. Everybody is a node. Tracing a packet never ends because you can't be sure you found the origin of the packet. Which only gets worse the longer somebody remains connected to i2p. And it even can handle torrenting, a torrent client is built in.
I2P sadly gets a lot less funding/support.
