   About 2-3 years ago I got very interested, did a bunch of reading, bought a   
   radio board… but my life at the time didn’t really allow the time to get   
   into it, so it fizzled. Things changed for me over this past summer and I’d   
   been reading about it again, and just this past weekend went to an intro   
   workshop which included assembling a radio kit.   
      
   I have some long-term concerns about meshtastic specifically, with how the   
   software works and, more significantly, the fact that “flood fill” is their   
   only routing strategy, but they definitely make it easiest to get into   
   things with an existing user base. I’m going to give that a try to learn   
   for a bit, as I read more about reticulum and meshcore   
   (reticulum’s”protocol” focus is particularly enticing to me, but i   
   can’t   
   yet tell if it’s overblown for what Lora provides).   
      
   This was my mastodon thread on my summary of the landscape. I got good   
   feedback and a few corrections/clarifications.

   I am looking forward to playing with this more.
