Great to see yet another project to provide "offline"-ish comms. The existing solutions are obviously not good enough yet, hence why all these projects are popping up. I hope we get to a good-enough one soon.

LoRa is great, but the bandwidth is terrible, so you'd be limited to Twitter sized messages when using this comms channel.

has anyone used reticulum and how does it compare to meshtastic (or even meshcore?)

Interesting project, thanks! Seems a little complicated though? How do I set this to communicate over only TCP or Bluetooth? I think that's a common use case (where no Internet is available) yet it seems unnecessarily complex to activate.
