My wife saw me looking at this. I have many questions to answer now. Thanks.

I was so worried as a stupid kid that I was a pervert because I was attracted to girls my age. No, it just turns out I’m attracted to people my age.

I believe the only part of Meshcore that’s not FOSS is the official app, and there’s a FOSS alternative.

Personally, I’d use Meshcore. I tried MT for a month or so. I never saw a conversation, just a few scattered “test” messages. Meanwhile, on MC, I was away from my phone for 4 hours yesterday and came back to 250+ coherent messages in a conversation from all over the region (not to mention the hundreds of test messages).

MT is better in ad-hoc situations since clients can repeat messages, but MC is better for establishing a region-wide communication network.

And both use LoRa which is proprietary.
