    Just guessing, it likely failed due to:

    • Being relatively unknown
    • I2P being relatively small
    • Java being a non-standardized language
    • No data verification (malicious host can corrupt data)
    • Poor UI and UX
    • The main developer leaving

    These are killshots to this type of service as people need to develop/extend/use it - for it to be viable. It is in the right direction, but (similar to many cornerstoning attempts in FOSS) is not handled gracefully.
