That's extremely valid for personal mental health

 I mean to say thank you for putting on your events! 

 Ultra basic setup (may require separate 915 MHz antenna)

 Line of sight is a nice to have, not a necessity. The best mitigation is having a higher density of nodes to relay messages.
They're so inexpensive, it's quite feasible and there may be a decent network around you already! 

 This is more hobbyist oriented stuff, so this is for people that like to build and customize. 
Mass market products are more oriented to what you describe where you trust the manufacturer to do everything for you.  

 This is so awesome! 🤩 

 Is that a reference to one of these? 😅 

 Lol don't get hung up on the products for suits. That's not where the revolution happens. 

 It's a signal 

 👀 

 Using Alby Hub won't guarantee that you have payment reliability since that is related to your channels you maintain on your Alby Hub node.

We're working on some tools to support this at Amboss, so stay tuned. 

 Both were an issue. 
Custodial structure made you reliant on their infrastructure and their node was unable to pay due to either their infrastructure, liquidity, visibility, or some other restriction they created on their infrastructure. 

 What's the argument? 
Sounds like a fact 

 I read a statement like that to mean [most] users don't care 

 Which features are we talking about? 

I'm a fan of privacy at the protocol level and then compromises for efficiency/user experience at the application level.

 Heltec v3 is popular in my hood. 
You'll want a battery to go with it. 
You can buy it from Rokland
https://store.rokland.com/products/heltec-wifi-lora-32v3?variant=41847224664147 

 Sounds like a great accessibility feature as well 

 Oof. The long arm of the law is out for blood.

 I've been pleasantly surprised with how far it can reach.
The message I sent from the plane on the flight in even received a confirmation at several thousand feet. 

 There's a feature called MQTT which broadcasts node locations to the internet, making them optionally discoverable. 
I can see one node in that area, but my node database is limited. 

 I started with a t-deck, which is overkill, but I see that most nodes in the area are using heltec V3. I ordered two of those (~$40 each) and will report on the experience when I receive them.

What may matter more is getting a large, high quality antenna and getting enough elevation. 

 Antenna and elevation. 
Higher powers require HAM licensure, but LoRa really means long range... Record distance is 832 km apparently but expected is 10 miles for line of sight or 3 miles in urban settings. 

 Try https://BancoLibre.com 
It's the same concept but you get a lightning address. This is the initial MVP and many more features are coming.

Use referral code "bitcoin" 

 It's so ridiculous travelling to these far away places only to be greeted by the same American music 

 I'd throw inflation up there as well 

 Manufactured consent 

 This is how you stay in great shapes! 

 Definitely follow the hashtags #memes to help with discovery.
I'll try to post at least one meme per day with the hashtag. 

 What's the non-profit? Tell me more about this write-off concept! This would be an amazing aspect to add to lightning.

Lightning is extremely altruistic at this early stage, so once you run a node, fill out your Amboss page and share the link so they can learn more and immediately connect to your node. 

Sounds like a great opportunity for those of us looking for interesting causes to support with liquidity! 

 Alternative, of course, is to simply buy some channels on Magma.

 Love it. 
That canola cricket omelette looked perfect 

 I just received a direct message from someone 100 miles away that only required three hops 🤯
People seriously underestimate the power of networks and decentralized communications.

 I have been warned that MQTTT can be very spammy, so use this feature with caution as the network protocol is susceptible to spam.

If we apply similar engineering logic to #mesh as we do to #nostr and #lightning, we may be able to mitigate some spam issues, like we do for nostr #relays.
