after a year or so hiatus I reinstalled i2p on my debian.

I don’t think I’m going to use it much: I enjoyed using it to torrent files and to ask about censorship circumvention, things I now have alternatives to.

why is this network still relevant?

    It’s technology like this that I think will become more and more important as governments seek to restrict access to large parts of the internet. UK and Australia are forging ahead in censorship, and the EU is well on their way. The US already does some censorship, as do large parts of Asia and Russia.

    No matter the reason given, it’s always about control. So less easily censored technologies will be very useful for anyone that wants the ability to research truth, or at least, alternate points of view.
