Where do we download this?
Whatโs the radius?
iOS is on app store. GitHub for Android. Bluetooth range only. But there is a way to connect to people locally and then make it infinite over Nostr relays after that
There's more little projects popping up too.
Wasn't aware of the Nostr relays being used: Interesting.
Available for iOS and "I believe Google Play Store" ?? Tried it with my daughter: it works but not usable until it scales up "Drastically"
Watch it for that Google Play store version, it's not official. The real version should be on shortly though. For now you're best to grab it from the GitHub.
Thanks for sharing this. Had no idea what bitchat was.

the radius is 10-50 meters depending on your device's bluetooth hardware
it increases with each user though by making a "mesh network"
(if you are person A, you can connect to person B who is in range, and also to anyone who is in range of person B)
awks
too relatable ๐ซ๐น
Iโve never seen anyone on it anywhere
I feel thisโฆ
Havenโt been able to use yetโฆ
This is stupid. Not because it's not a bad idea, but people are not going to use it. People barely use free open source software. In my opinion, the free open source software is dying and it's cannibalizing itself.
I'm the opposite.
Give me all the Free Software philosophy-compliant stuff out there. I'll use it after learning it ASAP!
