The network is still small! You can contribute with a fast, high-capacity node!

I was wondering why my speed was only about 250KB/s and I think this is why: there simply aren't many high speed nodes in the network!
If you have a VPS sitting around, just spinning, do consider contributing.
With a simple docker-compose
version: "3.5"
services:
i2p:
image: geti2p/i2p
container_name: i2p
restart: always
volumes:
- ./i2pconfig:/i2p/.i2p
network_mode: host
you can have i2p running in no time. Or follow the official installation instructions
Simply SSH with a local port forwarding to the router console ssh -L 7657:127.0.1.1:7657 $yourHost and open http://localhost:7657/
You can then configure your instance to share bandwidth.

How much bandwith it uses per month? Ist ir secure to run it in Germany?
It depends on how much you give decide to give it. You can say "my line has 10Mb up and 20Mb down, I want to share 50%". It's up to you. The more the better.
And it's secure to run in Germany. There are many nodes there. It's not like TOR. All the traffic stays within I2P, so nobody will be knocking on your door because someone downloaded something over your IP like with TOR.
I really live the Idea of i2p. The simple reason is that we can created our world without Google etc.
The problem with TOR is only if you run an exit relay, not with guard/middle relay, Snowflake or bridges. It is in their FAQs.
Indeed, you are correct.
In my case is around 7,5TB per month
You must have quite the line!
300Mbps residential fiber up&down. I2p is using more or less 5% of the line constantly. My setup is very low specs.
