    Hello random Lemming! Just wanted to thank you for this. I consider myself pretty well versed in tech and had not heard of Reticulum. More importantly, reading the docs it feels like I’m reading the writings of someone I agree with on a fundamental level - even about their departure from the public project.

    Going to give it a whirl.

    Again thanks

        The note here makes it clear (link at the very top of the GitHub readme doc): https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum/blob/master/MIRROR.md

        The author intends to work at their pace, on their time, with no interaction with the public projects.

        Likely, and this is supposition, a small group of developers connected on the network itself will push the project forward where pushes are needed but they may not be.

        But also, the very rare and important consideration that, in their words, “Everything you need is right here, and by any sensible measure, it’s done. Anyone who wants to invest the time, skill and persistence can build on it, or completely re-imagine it with different priorities.”
