Today I finally got our private #Reticulum network going. 3 full-time hosted nodes (US, EU, home) cross-propagating, one #LoRA node that will hopefully become a solar powered repeater in the middle of the property, and some clients on various phones and computers.
In theory this means:
- #OffGrid communications and location sharing around the farm and surrounding areas
- Secure-enough messaging, maybe location sharing out in the wide world
Coming soon:
- Telemetry sensors for temperature, humidity, etc around the house and farm
- Home Assistant bridge for the above and for sending alerts back to the network
- #BBS, naturally
Coming maybe someday:
- Reticulum over #Veilid, if I can get enough traction on Veilid FFI in Python & once Veilid is a bit more stable
- Something something iOS?
It's been a fun project, much better suited to my use cases than #Meshtastic so far.
