@llorenzin@infosec.exchange yeah, I can totally understand that, it's a constant problem in IT where there are competing options and no time/money/effort available for either a standard or bridges. I've not looked into Meshcore at the moment and Meshtastic doesn't have huge coverage where I am (more rural). My plan is to host a Meshtastic router at home which, when mounted on the outside wall of the house will hopefully help increase coverage. I'm also actively investigating Reticulum because, while Mesh* are good they seem to be LoRa only (for obvious technical reasons). Reticulum on the other hand covers TCP, LoRa, KISS (radio) and some others so messages can hop all over the place. Ultimately I'm expecting to have Meshtastic + Reticulum setup which gives options/redundancy in comms and security etc. I notice a name I recognise with Meshcore, Liam Cottle who also seems to have done significant work on Reticulum and Meshtastic :) @eestileib@tech.lgbt

    @fionasboots@tech.lgbt @llorenzin@infosec.exchange Yeah I love the idea of reticulum and it would be really cool to bridge lora to Ethernet, but first priority is getting a reliable power-outage-resistant repeater node up for the local mesh.
