Yeah, I can imagine that all sorts of dark web stuff would naturally gravitates towards I2P. Sounds like the obvious choice. However, the recent age verification BS can speed up the process of normie sites too. If Lemmy admins are required to conform to age verification laws, it only makes sense to host the instance on I2P instead.
Lemmy admins are required to, but they can also tell the UK regulators to go fuck themselves. 4chan went with that approach. If you are not living or visiting the UK and are not selling products in the UK you don’t really need to respect UK law in any way.
