I was a little bit surprised about the news I came across this morning, but it seems, that the founder of Reticulum stepped back in december 2025.
So, I guess we have to pay respect and say ‘thank you’ to markquist for his relentless work and continue on.
As far as I can see, some efforts have been made to create a fork on Codeberg by SkyGuy:
https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum/discussions/933 https://codeberg.org/skyguy/retinet
SkyGuy mentions:
I plan on fixing bugs and re-factoring to improve maintainability and, of course, merging great, non-AI contributions!
Even though I’m a little bit sad about markquists decision, this should be understood as a chance to continue his great work. A repo on Codeberg is also definitely nice to see!
Maybe also interesting:

AI slop
You mean the Skyguy fork?
No I mean this post was clearly written with GPT or some shit (also, he didn’t step back, he released the code into the wild because the entire point of reticulum is for it to be built out by us, not one dude)
Yeah, but doesn’t like the main thing basically still needs some degree of oversight to ensure compatibility with a grand scale of users? I mean, if like something for this to succeed across the entire United States don’t we need to all make sure we’re kind of expanding the same protocol and network? I’m new to all this, but I have four or five people here in Northern California that might want to start setting up something just in case the country goes full fascist we don’t wanna be left without some degree of communication either in case of a real emergency and Internet and phones start going down.
