You can use Reticulum with lofi/mesh, so thought people might be interested.

Its pretty cool, i just wish it was kinda popular and used more as base for a larger project. For the new people. Reticulum is a network stack that is meant to work off grid. And can use many interfaces one of which is LoRa

    Nice! Agreed.

    I remember it taking a full day and many back and forth's getting it to work. I wish it was easier to work with honestly.

    How did the Lora work for you?

    not really that great. meshtastic has been more fun, not in a term of everything works. But in more of the sense of getting almost weekly messages from fellow mesh enjoyers on planes :P. transmitting kinda suck where i live because of the hills and the trees, I think i got like a message about a mile down the road from my house.

    Its very promising, but i think its more limited by LoRa, because the bandwidth is so low especially for anything larger than a text message.

    TIL reticulum means the net. My exposure to it was the endoplasmic reticulum which I now no means the net withing the cytoplasm of the cell. makes sense.

    It's just a cringy project that thinks cryptography can magically solve the addressing and routing nightmare of mesh networks, and otherwise introduces absolutely zero novel concepts or strategies beyond that which leads to great compatibility with existing networking tech.
