What hardware are you using for LoRa connectivity? Meaning to go down that rabbit hole but the sheer number of hardware options is overwhelming given my limited bandwidth...

Just dove down this rabbit hole myself yesterday. I decided I wanted to be up and running with my Meshtastic device sooner than later and with little headache, so I went and got myself a RAKwireless WisMesh Pocket v2 that was pre-assembled. (Bought from Rokland, if you're in the US.)

I decided to go with it as it has an OLED screen, GPS radio, rechargeable battery , and an external antenna with bluetooth. Possibly more than I'd ever need, but I'm excited to get it and try it out.

Unfortunately I'm in the EU, but also looking for a pre-assembled option (not as much free time on my hands as I used to have....) I'll look into your suggestion and see if I find a local retailer Thx!

You are going to have tons of fun. Have a look at https://meshmap.net. It's volunteer, so it won't show everybody nearby, but you might get an idea of what's around you.
