For those who are using Reticulum.network.
I write a Gemini Proxy running on Nomadnet.
Just go on the node SherbyZone at this adress :
3e05f77a9f0dbfc124f230862153c9f9:/page/index.mu
Still in early beta, no input and no certificate and have trouble with some links.

I added the input feature for Search engine and input form.
@Cotteux stumbled upon your proxy randomly, it's really cool :3 I should host it on my nomadnet node as a gate to my capsule I think..

other options for non internet networks (i mentioned wifi antennas before) are ham radio digital networks like ampr (and it has official network44.0.0.0/8).
also, instead of reticulum yggdrasil could be used.

Reticulum has one advantage above all others: It's designed for extreme low bandwidth. You could send it over semaphore flags if you wanted. Given that LoRa's longer range modes provide sub-kilobit speed, that matters.

The catch is that Reticulum is utterly incompatible with everything. It has to be - it runs over links so starved for bandwidth that even TCP couldn't work, because acknowledgement packets wouldn't return fast enough. So any networking over Reticulum means writing everything from ground up.

Gemini over LoRaWAN? — I'm fascinated by the idea of running a smolweb over LoRaWAN. Imagine a decentralized network of FLOSS-hardware devices, solar-powered, each running a gemini capsule and a relay (HAM radio style) to transmit data on to other points on the LoRaWAN mesh network. It's not a fast way to communicate, but smolweb gemini doesn't need to be. If LoRaWAN can reach 56.6kbps, it'd feel like the days of dialup, but... decentralized, solar-powered, and resistant to censorship. Has...
