Anyone still using P2P investing in 2025? Honest question

I am very interested in how people currently perceive P2P investing.

A few years ago, it was everywhere, but now it seems that the standard advice is "just ETFs, ignore the rest." I mostly follow this approach, but I still keep a small allocation to P2P for diversification.

For me, P2P only works as:

a small part of my portfolio

something outside the public markets

an experiment, not a core strategy

I've been using one platform in the EU for some time (that's not the topic of this post, I don't want to promote anything here). The experience has been... okay. Nothing magical, nothing terrible – just another tool with its own risks and compromises.

It is clear that:

there is a platform risk

buyback guarantees are not real guarantees

it can go wrong, especially in unfavorable macroeconomic conditions

This is not advice or a recommendation. I'm just interested in what the community thinks about it.

So:

are you still investing in P2P, or have you completely abandoned it in favor of ETFs/stocks?

If anyone really wants specific information, I'll be happy to answer in the comments or DM – but I'm interested in the discussion itself.

Here is printscreen of my portfolio as an example:
