After about a week in Russia, using @bitchat regularly I found out:
1) Bluetooth mesh, although very useful and great to send info locally still has a very weak range. Notable mention to Android phones reaching significantly further than iphones.
2) connection gets jammed often in the city here. Almost every time I was downtown mobile internet was jammed, only wifi and regular phone works. There could be a higher powered device to extend the mesh in these places, like cafés and on so
3) the geohash chat in Russia is always populated. +10 ppl at any point in time. A great way to find tips about which vpns to use and get other info from locals (or feds, who knows?)
4) it is still so early for bitchat! I installed in the whole family's fleet of phones, everyone used it without trouble. UX looks intimidating but it's actually not
