      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.
