MeshMapper et al exist, but it’s kind of off-putting that issues in the UK forced different settings upon us. Some of the region proposals also don’t necessarily make sense globally. I would rather do a more distributed style. Each mesh community can figure out what works best for it. Feels like a comparison between Mastodon and Bluesky.

In that vein, also building another thing. Chat-oriented, multiple nodes and protocols, config management for a wide-area mesh context. Shedding all the less useful features to really focus on this usecase. Not overloading the term “Acknowledged”, demonstrating that Meshtastic has all the same capability as MeshCore. Got about 30 users locally and getting lots of great feedback. #Meshtastic #MeshCore

Also the choice by MeshMapper to use red for no coverage is dreadful and makes the map hard to use. #MeshCore
