So I feel like there's a piece of information I'm missing here with #MeshTastic and it probably stems from my lack of understanding of ham radio and things like that.

yesterday I was able to find six nodes and also yesterday after updating my software and ever since then I have not been able to find anything in town. And I'm wondering if it's a channel slot issue or what? I honestly don't know why I was I was able to see a few nodes and then after updating my node I haven't seen anything since. Whether I'm stationary or going through town. Kind of confusing. Any advice for a somewhat noob when it comes to mesh-tastic?

Off-grid messaging. Mostly text. It's not really well suited for data. Reticulum is a lot more flexible and I kind of like it a lot more.

Reticulum seems miles ahead.

Meshtastic seems like a mid tier device with a marketing department.

It's kinda what it feels like. Granted, I don't have two meshtastic devices to test it, but reticulum just fucking worked. And I'm having a lot of issues with meshtastic.

But it has to work pretty decently though, because it seems to be doing a lot of good where the floods happened.

oh i dont think its bad at all.

its a simple, narrow frequency mesh device that seems relatively easy to use. but Reticulum is an internet replacement.

What hardware did you use with reticulum? Just re-flash those same lily devices?

Yup! Device support between reticulum and meshtastic is almost parallel.
