In my understanding, one reason why #Reticulum is not usable yet for the use case "internet-free communication accessible to many people" is missing multicast feature, meaning #groupchat s not working.

But now I come to the conclusion that #MeshCore has the same issue: Group chats (channels in MeshCore) are just flood packets, not guaranteed to receive every group member (only where randomly at time of sending the packet makes it through), and beeing flood doing a big burden on the network.

Why then people concentrate so much on #MeshCore, instead of making a good messaging client for #Reticulum and then we are basically at the same functionality that #MeshCore gives, plus much more advantages?

(Or am I wrong?)

@dreieck I totally agree with you. I'm experimenting with doing calls and running a BBS over RNS. And unlike Meshcore you can also run RNS over packet radio which is something moving more towards. We just have to keep preaching the gospel to everyone and show them the way.
