Using #arduinonostr library its possible to make a #nostr mesh-network of cheap microcontrollers.

A node is both dumb relay and client, it looks for other nodes nearby and connects to them over ble/wifi to share notes. Notes are push/pulled over webserial to a device (phone, whatever).

As long as the microcontrollers are always looking for new connections, the mesh will be self-healing.

Freaking awesome man, I love embedded projects.

This is interesting.

Maybe we can deploy this at DWeb camp this year. They are doing a whole day where they turn off the internet. It would be fun to still be able to use Nostr during that time.

And use of LoRa shields can extend the range to 15 km. It would be a interesting project to work on, no doubt.
