I2p engineering is superior to Tor. It has no exit notes. I think of i2p as a support network from the plain open internet. Tor can access .com and .org sites, i2p only works within the i2p framework and has no access to anything outside of i2p or eep sites.
I don't use it because there's nothing on there, but I still strongly support it and prefer it over Tor or .onion
I quit running i2p so others have access to my bandwidth because of always having to adjust settings for network being firewalled, otherwise I would leave it running permanently but it's always firewalled on a new setup.
the firewalled status has never really caused any issues for me. I still get transit tunnels and fine speeds. I do wonder how much more it would be if I was able to properly configure the port forwarding though. unfortunately my ISP uses cgnat and I connect from a VPN.

some people do host public http outproxies but I still like i2p over tor.
Same here, I do run a i2p nodes though. Would be great that if privacy focused companies would offer alternative i2p entry sites

I'm running them on a VPS
I had it installed natively on my system as a daemon or backroud service.
Does i2p support udp?
Yes, check SSU transport
