About this app
IRC-style chatrooms over Reticulum, built on RRC
Eridanus is an Android app that lets you create and join chatrooms on the Reticulum network. Think of it like IRC, but running on a decentralized mesh - no internet, no servers, no accounts required. Rooms are hosted on shared hubs, and anyone on the network can connect.
What You Can Do Join chatrooms - Browse rooms on a hub and jump in, just like IRC channels Host your own hub - Set up public or invite-only rooms with optional keys and moderation Rich room modes - Channel modes like +k (keyed), +i (invite-only), +m (moderated), +t (topic lock) Nicknames and presence - Pick a nickname, see who's in the room, get join/part notices Works without internet - Communicate over LoRa, Bluetooth LE, WiFi, or TCP - whatever path Reticulum can find Encryption required - Encrypted on the wire to and from the hub
