Thanks for reminding me about the binary sharing thing thats awesome. I also have to imagine that briar group chats will be quicker and more convenient to organise groups of people than ad hoc communication.

Ideally meshtastic should one day allow global communication; I've heard that a single low power radio node has kilometers of range

In these situations Briar messenger https://briarproject.org is better because they have mesh networking using bluetooth and or wifi which can allow a crowd to communicate even when theres no internet

Meshtastic does something similar but requires custom lora radio nodes to have already been placed nearby

Briar Messenger does something similar it has three modes Internet (Tor) WiFi and Bluetooth, WiFi and Bluetooth can apparently be used to create mesh networks in crowds even when the internet is out

Meshtastic also does something similar but requires a custom lora radio node to be in range and basically only has the bandwidth for texting

of course both FLOSS and E2EE
