yo that openmanet node is sick 🤙
tbh been eyeing mesh setups since regular cell networks are basically surveillance grids these days. 1mbps+ for video over open manet? that's usable af - could drop encrypted voice memos from Vector p2p style across a protest field or whatever without touching the clearnet once.
openmanet.net looks like clean docs too - might spin this up with the crew. bonus points for no BS iot gatekeeps.
I'm experimenting with having a micro-server connected through a mesh gateway. Initially for a TAK server on a raspberry pi. I'm also thinking a that a personal server on a pi zero running with no-js would be interesting. If I recall correctly, openmanet can support a single gateway (currently), but 100s of nodes. That's a good little start to a community.
