Meshtastic is similar, and very active Project Owl,
Reticulum RNS are also
well worth investigating.
I've been playing with meshtastic a bit. I think it's great for its
intended use case but for broader use the problems I have with it are
- limited to LoRa only with no ability to use other mechanisms
- limited scaling due to flooding
- group key only, resulting in lack of ability for private messages
in community network
Reticulum is very interesting but less mature. That is what I currently
intend to work on.
I had not heard of Owl; thanks for pointing that out. From a quick
look, it smells like a funded research project that ended in 2019 and I
wonder if there is a continuing viable community?
