“Always connected” meshes don’t scale, but fragmented meshes that use store-and-forward for some data are workable. I’d like to see someone do this with Nostr. The main issue is that you’d have to limit the size of data in transit, so rich media is probably not realistic.
Think FIDO protocol rather than the always-on internet we’re accustomed to.
A mesh of meshes may also be possible in theory.
ah doesn't ham-radio packet system do something like that, I only vaguely remember
but someone would have to build it into a major 3rd party firmware like openwrt to get wide adoption
