Instead of making people install an app to use the mesh, the node created a local WiFi network. Walk within range, connect your phone, open a browser. Static HTML page (PWA) served from the node. Read and write to the mesh without installing anything. MeshCore now has real coverage in multiple cities. LoRa range is measured in kilometers. Hardware is cheap. Which raises a practical question: what would it look like to do what Disaster Radio imagined, but with MeshCore's actual infrastructure behind it? A solar-powered public node in a park. You connect to the WiFi, open a browser, and there are channel messages collected from the mesh while you were walking. You write something back. The identity design has a few directions. Shared identity for all hotspot users, config locked so visitors can only read and write - nobody can touch the node name, network settings, or channels. Or: the browser generates a fresh keypair per session, multitenancy in firmware, your messages tied to your browser session via websocket. Or the simplest version: no keys at all, just a name you type, channel messages only (they don't need a per user key). Or run the meshcore-bitchat bridge and let people connect via Bitchat. Put this in a park with a poster explaining that the mesh exists, how to get the app, why it matters. Same idea as a little free library, except the infrastructure is invisible and radio-based. Someone walks by, connects for a few minutes, discovers the mesh is real and reachable.
