Reposted by AfriDepartment of Decentralization @dod.ngo · 16/09/2026Today we will have our next Stammtisch on board of @c-base.org. This will be the first one since the @getdweb.net camp - so we will likely talk about what happened there. Topics will also be the next actions of the DoD like: platform.openmeet.net/events/code-... 073

Afri @l5y.tech · 08/09/2026I managed my first #reticulum LXMF conversation over 3 LoRa hops today with an absolute random person in the next state. It's all coming together nicely. Reticulum may be the most interesting technology of the decade. 081

Afri @l5y.tech · 20/08/2026#Reticulum Berlin meetup yesterday at XHain: Reticulous app and firmware is taking shape, we gave out the remaining Heltec v4 cases from camp and someone implemented RRC - Reticulum Relay Chat. 🤓 /join #reticulumberlin on the community hub. 020
Afri @l5y.tech · 12/08/2026I had a spectacular solar eclipse /after/ sunset today. Hard to photograph, so let me explain. My holiday plans put me coincidentally in the path of the total eclipse today but slightly off too far to the east Mediterranean. Before sunset, we would see a >90% eclipse which was impressive by itself. 110
Afri @l5y.tech · 31/07/2026Added mesh activity to potatomesh.net Interesting metric: #Meshtastic 0.97 packets per node and hour; #Meshcore 0.29 packets per node and hour. So, on average, Meshtastic nodes in Berlin send one packet each hour where as Meshcore nodes only send one in 3 hours (this includes messages though). 020
Afri @l5y.tech · 25/07/2026My #meshcore rooftop repeater got a little sister, a #meshtastic router (late). Happy meshing everyone ☀ 040
Afri @l5y.tech · 25/07/2026Good read on that matter. "I regret migrating to Codeberg." マリウス.com/i-regret-mig...xn--gckvb8fzb.com 010
Afri @l5y.tech · 24/07/2026Codeberg just banned all crypto-currency projects. Quote: "Content that harms the reputation of Codeberg, such as - but not limited to - cryptocurrency related projects." I would argue, no matter where you stand on blockchain, such a policy harms Codeberg more than any single project. 170
Afri @l5y.tech · 17/07/2026Received two #meshcore messages from Berlin in Helsinki, 11 and 19 hops. This is getting out of hand. 070
Afri @l5y.tech · 16/07/2026Adam and Eve ignoring God and trying the fruit of knowledge was an act of emancipation and liberation. Yet, thousands of years later, religion still tries to keep us down with stories of lies about the evil nature of Satan. 020

Afri @l5y.tech · 12/07/2026My favorite response from the local AI bot we hosted on #meshcore at @getdweb.net DWeb Camp was this. "The bot rescues robots using techniques like jumping, punching, and spin-attacking." 170
