I’m interested in this project, but I am unsure if there’s anything actually useful or fun you can do with it.

So tell me about the fun stuff you’ve built!

    It works best when you give one away OR meet up with your local community to be honest. Its like a remote pager at best so keep in mind, meshtastic can only do text. Some places (like mine) have over 100 active nodes so we talk about all kinds of things. Others have just the person who bought it.

    I like traveling with one and seeing who I get.

      I’m in a city with a population of about 50,000 and we have somewhere between four and ten nodes depending on the day and time.
