That was a great 1st #FOSDEM experience. Any devs or activists involved with #MeshNetworks up to something this evening?

I'm on my way to (my first!) #FOSDEM! Hopefully the bus swap in Amsterdam will work out, we're already quite delayed. Only 0.5h instead of the originally planned 1.5h stop over time.
Let me know if you're at FOSDEM, too, and would like to talk about #MeshNetworks, #multicast and/or @batadv :-).

I am buying my first LoRa device.

Following the insightful buying guide by LocalMesh Netherlands, I am thinking I will go for LYLYGO T-Echo Plus. I would like to buy it from the official website, where it costs ~54€.

What do you think?

Buy MeshCore Devices | LoRa Radios

LoRa radio devices for MeshCore in the Netherlands: Heltec V3, LilyGO T-Beam and more. Starting at €45. 868 MHz devices for Europe. View all options.

"Element expects that a Dutch government investment in Matrix peer-to-peer technology could now support this quest. The goal is to develop a version of Element that can operate on a mesh network without requiring an internet server."

Ooh, that's exciting! @matrix folks have been working on p2p matrix for a while, but progress has depended on volunteer devs;

"We need to go beyond Signal" – How today's AWS outage shows the weaknesses of centralized apps

Signal's privacy and security are great, but being a centralized app makes it vulnerable

It's always good when there's a storm like this, and the mesh is being used as an optional, fun thing and not a critical infrastructure thing.

#Meshtastic #MeshNetworks

Today marks the 15th anniversary of the beginning of the Egyptian revolution, in 2011.

Those were the years when Facebook was trying to fool people posing as the good platform empowering oppressed populations.

Look at where we are, now. Platforms showing their real despicable nature.

I truly hope another revolution comes soon, everywhere. This time, we will all be using mesh networks, decentralized protocols, encrypted communication.

Transparency for the powerful, encryption for the masses. (paraphrasing Julian Assange)

Do I know anyone who's into #LoRa #meshNetworks? #meshCore #meshtastic etc? Just found out about these today and am already hooked and planning to build/expand the local networks (north of Toronto etc).

Now we have so many people talking about #Meshtastic AND #Meshcore. I think it's really time for a showdown between these two at the next @battlemesh in September in Croatia 🥊📡 .
Or will they both chicken out again 🙃?
We'll likely have a nice, quiet, secluded camping ground with space in all directions. With developers + activists from all over the world, typically with around 50 participants. Great opportunity to exchange #MeshNetworks ideas.

Hello @Indivisibleteam -- a resilience note for public actions: cell phones expose both message content and location (e.g., Stingray devices). Pairing phones with LoRa mesh networking via the Reticulum protocol enables encrypted, non-locating, device-to-device & hidden-IP worldwide messaging.

Happy to share practical, field-tested insights if useful.
