Update: the Heltec v3 is here!!! 🥳
I'll keep you posted regarding my experiment with off-grid mesh communication.
And if you are intrigued about this world, there is a SUPERB documentary about it by @nastasiahadjadji on ARTE (thanks @stereo for the heads-up!)
French version: https://www.arte.tv/fr/videos/126484-047-A/tracks/
German version: https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/126484-047-A/tracks/
(most of the dialogue is in English so you could follow along even if you don't speak the two languages)
@_elena @nastasiahadjadji @stereo Wow, that's nice!
I have a Heltec V3 and Heltec T114 and went quite quick from #meshtatic to #meshcore
I think for just #offgrid #chatting meshcore is probably best but didn't manage to find friends.
So I reflashed them now as #reticulumnetwork #rnode and connected them to communicate over #LoRa into the internet.
On Android I use #columba or #sideband for chatting.
On #Linux Desktop I use #nomadnet to browse pages and #MeshChat or #MeshChatX to chat.
