Reticulum was at the ccc? can’t find the video
The gist: The internet has become incredibly centralized. Reticulum is a protocol (and supporting hardware and software) that aims at using any physical means of communicating (e.g. wifi, or any other wireless connection) data to build a communication network. Anonymous and encrypted by default.
The sole developer isn’t actively supporting Reticulum anymore:
“The software remains available for use as-is. Occasional updates may appear at unpredictable intervals, but there will be no support, no responses to issues, no discussions, and no community management in this or any other public venue. If it doesn’t work for you, it doesn’t work. That is the entire extent of available troubleshooting assistance I can offer you.”
The latest release is dated 2 days ago https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum . Actively supporting is not the same as actively developing.
This should probably be taken as “I am tired of supporting everyone who did not RTFM, too bad if you can’t make it work” and is a totally reasonable thing to do, especially as the project gain more traction.
There is a pretty good community around reticulum that is usually supportive.
Where are you getting this info from? The last release was 2 days ago https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum and there is an active community porting it to different languages and working on related projects https://awesome-reticulum.net/ .

I guess there are other people contributing still, but the github page is just a mirror, issues can’t be reported there or anything.
Because you better move away from Github.
Mesh networking at a fraction of a fraction of speeds of traditional infra.
That’s only with R-nodes, which are L-O-R-A. If doing it over a faster connection such as an ethernet cable, a wireless Wi-Fi type link, etc., it can do 40 MBPS according to the documentation.
