... it isn't really designed to be used

My experience with Freenet agrees. It just doesn't work, essentially. Freenet saturated the bandwidth I gave to it, ate up the disk I allocated to it and after a week or so of 24/7 uptime most searches still failed. Even when browsing worked I got the impression that there was little or no real content on the network.

I support the goals and motivations of the projects, but they should be looked at only as proof of concept at this point.
