I mean, it is pretty cool to be able to do long range, encrypted, license free communications. Whether it’s the be all end all, I don’t think so. Reticulum for example seems like a much better thought out protocol. But it’s something, and it works right now. HAM is cool and all, but the lack of encryption makes it pretty useless for day to day usage (and to some people’s SHTF plans).
So many Meshtastic mentions these days. Is it really worth the hype?
