Oddbean new post about login | logout Reticulum.network > meshtastic
What are the advantages/disadvantages? I was about to start looking into meshtastic.
Tremendous more grainular control with Reticulum • can run on any OS (device agnostic) • native encryption • orders of magnitude increase in bandwidth & data speed • much much more that I didn't list Meshtastic is a great beginner setup, but Reticulum is by far the Gold Standard for offgrid mesh comma I've switched our entire meetup mesh suite over to Reticulum for purposes listed above
Sick. What are you doing with the meetup?
(Imo) What I expect all meetups to do with mesh comms, using it for; • internal meetup messages • P2P marketplace • ground zero backup communications (no need for TG, etc.) Many more cool things like sharing Block templates (future build), cashu mints and tokens exclusively for locals on mesh network, etc. So so many cool things
Shiiiiiit. Okay new rabbit hole.
How about the range, compared to LoRa?
Its device/protocol agnostic so however far you want. Check out Reticulum.Network to learn more
Specifically here👇 https://reticulum.network/hardware.html
Apples to oranges IMO. Sure they share an underlying technology in LoRa but seems to me they each occupy a unique niche. Its like saying airplanes > cars. They're both transportation but its not worth flying a plane to the corner market. #reticulum and #meshtastic are both awesome and the fact that they exist reminds me that I live in the cyberpunk utopia/distopia I was promised as a child.
