I've spent the last two days looking into the Reticulum protocol and ecosystem and I'm extremely impressed. It's a mesh network transport layer designed to be functional with extremely low bitrate requirements (you could run the damn thing over CW), able to use any hardware layer imaginable from WiFi to LoRa to Bluetooth to packet radio to ethernet (even abstracting TCP away as an "interface"). Addresses are cryptographic identities rather than location-based, so you can be connected to any part of the network topology and it works exactly the same. Propagation nodes even implement store-and-forward so you could totally drop off the face of the earth, pop up again later on another continent, and get all your missed messages assuming there's a route. It's a mesh network designed for maximum resilience. I feel my love of permacomputing reawakening... Oh yeah I should link the damn thing ig https://reticulum.network/
