BedastGPT<p>I've been reading about Reticulum, which is a network stack that can run over just about anything, including LoRa.</p><p>It’s not compatible with Meshtastic so it's either/or with choosing one to run on a node.</p><p>It's kinda interesting. It's intended to allow running any application over the network and it will be securely and privately routed.</p><p>Meshtastic and Reticulum aren't really comparable. Meshtastic is more of a messaging application that uses the LoRa radio. Reticulum, by itself, is infrastructure to put applications on.</p><p>There are messaging applications that work on Reticulum using Lightweight Extensible Message Format (LXMF). I think these applications can work similar to how Meshtastic works, though I'm not sure if it can do anything like a "default" channel like Meshtastic for just broadcasting messages.</p><p>I guess I have another rabbit hole to explore.</p><p>There doesn't appear to be any iOS apps for talking to a Reticulum LoRa node, so not sure this is something I'll commit to.</p><p>My stationary node will continue to run Meshtastic for now.</p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/Meshtastic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Meshtastic</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Reticulum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Reticulum</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/OffGridCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OffGridCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/Nerd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Nerd</span></a></p>

Dunc<p>Introductory post on this new GotoSocial account implemented for $3.75/month hosting from knthost.com<br><br>I'm a bit of a grumpy old man who still loves hiking in the mountains and playing about with technology.

The Original Stripey Goodness<p>I've left my <a href="https://meow.social/tags/meshtastic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>meshtastic</span></a> basestation up and running for no real reason - I'm simply not actually checking it much. Most of the message traffic on LongFast last time I looked was folks calling radio check.</p><p>Hey, friends? there's a helpful little icon next to every message you send which lets you know if any other node has received it. You don't actually need to call for a radio check, it's built in.</p><p>And then somebody started spamming LongFast with some kind of telemetry nonsense... not actual telemetry because it had fields like 'Ammo' which fluctuated by like dozens of rounds. Uhhh. If somebody's just dumping mags that makes the news PDQ.</p><p>So I've thought about just... not anymore. It was fun and novel for a bit there, but I am not getting much utility from it.</p><p>I may investigate <a href="https://meow.social/tags/reticulum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reticulum</span></a> over <a href="https://meow.social/tags/lora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lora</span></a> instead. The routing protocols are far more intelligent, the cryptographic design is better thought out...</p><p>IDK. I guess we'll see. Inertia is a hell of a thing.</p>
nullagent<p>Now back to the positive.</p><p>All is not lost, meshtastic is the biggest LoRa mesh and it sucks BUT its not the only one and the same mobile nodes and repeaters you'd use for meshtastic can be used on any other LoRa mesh. </p><p>I think the most exciting meshtastic alternative is Reticulum. It exists already, has a routing and security approach for the real world but might be too opinionated in some ways for some users. It's a bit of a grander vision</p><p><a href="https://reticulum.network/manual/whatis.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">reticulum.network/manual/whati</span><span class="invisible">s.html</span></a></p><p><a href="https://partyon.xyz/tags/reticulum" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reticulum</span></a> <a href="https://partyon.xyz/tags/lora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lora</span></a></p>
