Very cool to get another look at what people are building! I definitely plan to get set up as soon as I have time.
Perhaps I'm still thinking too much in TCP/IP but I'm having trouble with this section:
Your node is not identified by a domain name or an IP address – instead it generates a cryptographic hash unique to the node when the node is created, and that is used to find and identify the node on the peer-to-peer Reticulum mesh network. Therefore, you don’t need to open any ports on your firewall to serve NomadNet pages.
This sounds great, but I don't really get how it works. (I had trouble understanding it when I read the original reticulum docs too, and just sort of filed it under 'sounds kinda like tor, which I also don't understand'.)
