    I just got a unit couple of days ago and it… just works. It’s quite impressive.

        Stop attacking me. 😂

        But yeah, no use case other than - checking if it works. I’ll probably setup a standalone node on my balcony and leave it be to strengthen the network.

          I was curious. Not mocking you :)

          I could imagine living in a valley, or an alpine hut.

            I know, I kid, but yes, I just got it because it’s cheap enough to try. In reality the only use case I envision right now is have a couple of units in the drawer for emergency scenarios.

              Have you been able to communicate with anyone else on the mesh network?

                Yup. There are people occasionally writing in LongFast.

                  Noice, so presumably these are other people within your town/city? I’m sorry, I just think this is cool af.
