You remember how it felt to get a Gmail address in 2004? When you had to know someone to get in? And having one meant something? Or how about the people who grabbed the first dot coms in 1995?

There’s a window like that again right now, and most people don’t even know it’s open.

@perlman very very cool post. I’m on Meshtastic - I wonder how ret. can scale and move away from public tcp/IP and towards other mediums such as Lora.

Question: is reticulum still being developed? I thought the main dev made a blog post that he’s stepping down from the project.

@ccwod On the LoRa question: this is actually one of Reticulum's quiet superpowers! It was never really an internet protocol wearing a mesh costume. It was designed from day one to be transport-agnostic. TCP/IP is just the easy front door for newcomers. It runs natively over LoRa, packet radio, serial links, and can use multiple interfaces at once. LFG! 🚀 (sorry i got excited)

@perlman and last (sorry for the spam), I really do love your article about getting started with basic hosting on reticulum. That’s the shit I’m here for. I see the vision. I just think there are more pieces to be filled in that people have yet to fully realize yet. I read the Nodestar Playbook from your bio and I sort of see the same thing played out - Meshtastic is pretty nailed down, but the jump from Meshtastic ➡️ reticulum for the layperson/lay-community isn’t there yet IMO
