@onepict @nlnet @librecast Woo, thank you! Honestly it's such an honor to get feedback like that.

It's been an intense learning curve, but a rewarding one. As a true, concrete example, I got to spend a decent chunk of time yesterday getting to better understand how Linux TUN/TAP works - something I've kind of known existed for years, literally since back in my meshnet days, but never needed to explore the details of. I've ended every day for awhile now feeling a good kind of tired, with a map of the world that's a little more fleshed out. I missed that. It is *good* to be here.
