i just read a heap of the waffle on the reticulum site and my conclusion is that it's some kind of alpha grade version of ... damn... what's it called... was some network protocol with this idea of moons and stuff lol...
it didn't go very well and it was a project with a paid base and central directory problem, though you could use it... what was it called... damn... maybe you will know the one i'm talking about
but honestly, i don't get what reticulum is trying to achieve and i don't understand why it's written in python, this is not a language renowned for being good at handling bulk data or network connections let alone both at once
