Recently I discovered Meshtastic which is basically a mesh node system of radios with encrypted messaging. Each radio acts as a node and receives and transmits data to the next one. No cell towers or satellites needed. No "big tech" services needed. Just decentralized encrypted communication.
However, currently it appears the only way to connect the radios to a phone is via the meshtastic app and bluetooth. Since I'm not a fan the privacy implications of Bluetooth connections, I'd prefer to use it tethered but it is not recognized. Are there any plans to implement support for Meshtastic? Has anybody used it with GrapheneOS with success?
