I've had a couple of false starts, but I've been getting more into community mesh stuff recently. I think the tech is really interesting by itself and I have some ideas for mobile adhoc mesh protocols, but finding people to build something with is hard.
I'd be interested in helping you build whatever you're thinking of...
I'm currently chatting with some folks in a discord server, but idk if I'm able to invite others. I'm planning to spin up a lemmy instance to facilitate more project discussion. Pretty informal at this stage, but our current draft configs are mirrored here and I have some of my other projects on there as well.
I originally wanted to have a cute little cluster of fossil repos, but the forum is text only and that's pretty limiting.
Sorry for late reply, been
I got my amateur radio license recently and I just started thinking about this
I don't really know very much at this point tbh but I would also be down to help with your project if you would like
Idk if I could even find enough people in my city who would want to do something like this with me either... although I am willing to run/help people run network nodes based on things other than 802.11 which could help a lot with range (point-to-point radio links, maybe over microwave, more conventional packet radio on the amateur radio bands, LoRa, etc)
We've decided to try organizing the mesh project using briar. Here's my address: briar://adkjcwpltwvnqsjyn3shg3qeytrxxerlsmgl6pk2uw5o3tm3rxuhi
DM me ur ID so I can add u back and then I'll invite you to the forum.
