It's biggest use is over the 900MHz "LoRa" (long range about 2-5km) and works well with a multitude of equipment.

I've got some HelTec devices which are sweet.

Meshtastic = nomadic and point-to-point comms with no middle hardware. Great for hiking in poor reception areas to keep in touch with friends. Supports 7 hops or nodes of indirect communication

Meshcore = good for building your own network backbone and extends further through I think 64 nodes. Better for static location and densely populated areas.

Both support encryption, use 900MHz spectrum (no HAM licenses necessary), and can be flashed on loads of hardware.

Reticulum looks to expands on both of those Pros https://www.reticulumnet.nl/en/comparison/

Sorry, I'm a huge nerd, this shit is great! I started using LoRa sensors at work to save on battery life, cost, and network infrastructure.

I'm not an expert, but it is a decentralised network stack that can work over any physical medium, so you and friend can spin up two radios and have text and audio communication, and simple web sites as well as lots of other stuff completely independently from anybody!

Yes:)
