What are those gripes? If I don't have anyone else who would use it, but would hang out in a public chat room, it didn't seem like reticulum was the right choice for that? You need destinations on things?


We have a relatively dense meshtastic in my city, and yet I can't reliably send a message across to my friend, who would be 4 hops away.

It's just not awesome. Especially compared to what you can do with ham radio.


You must live in nyc or san Francisco lol


It’s pretty dense in Portland and Seattle too, I’d image most of the bigger cities have a fairly large net


Boise, actually.


It seems like big cities get congested, on marginal systems the chances of only getting half the messages is very high. It really dosnt integrate with much else, the mqtt stuff seems unreliable.

It does seem like the RNode radios are a lot less mature but they seem to be aiming to be less of a toy.
