What’s the advantage over signal?
If you have Internet it uses tor and there’s no main server to rely on.
If there’s no Internet it can use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi locally.
Well I have to admit, those are some pretty snazzy tricks…

Well, ones that aren’t based on a service operating in the EU, at any rate.
this could finally be a good “reason” to convice some people near me to get into meshtastic
