What is Reticulum?

From Reticulum Network Stack Manual:

Reticulum is a cryptography-based networking stack for building both local and wide-area networks with readily available hardware, that can continue to operate under adverse conditions, such as extremely low bandwidth and very high latency.

OK, there’s a lot to that, and I’m interested in some basic practical implementation as well as what might be built on top of something like this.

Importantly, we have this:

From a users perspective, Reticulum allows the creation of applications that respect and empower the autonomy and sovereignty of communities and individuals. Reticulum enables secure digital communication that cannot be subjected to outside control, manipulation or censorship.

Considering my Digital Detox efforts, I am very intrigued.

I’ve been learning by doing and only reading here and there but mostly leaning on a friend’s understanding to get up and running. I have some notes on Getting started on Reticulum that I’ll try and make actually useful and am attempting to set up a public and private gateway node which I’ll write up…if it works ;)
