Meshtastic is revolutionizing communication, merging ultra-low-cost microcontrollers with expansive LoRa transponders to enable encrypted messages to traverse miles without cellular infrastructure. This is not just open-source networking; it’s a bold leap into a future where distance is defied and messages are liberated from the clutches of telecom giants. Discover the frontier of decentralized communication at https://meshtastic.org/, where every message travels freely, securely, and boundlessly.

I read an overview of the technology and Meshtastic doesn’t really have the thruput and the suggestion from the video was to take Meshtastic off of the internet. This is why I wish Adafruit would get involved to improve the firmware and thruput of the device. This device just doesn’t have the bandwidth to handle emergencies. If everyone got on their Meshtastic devices, it wouldn’t be usable.
Meshtastic is too early in development to be much good in my opinion.
Did MESHTASTIC Die At Hamvention??
