Oh, yea, very low data rate.
Great example of a use-case.

The highest data rate it looks like is supported by LoRa in North America is 21900 bits per second, so you’re talking about 21kbps, or 2.6kBps. That’s about half of what an analog telephone system modem could achieve.
It’s going to be pretty bandwidth-constrained limited in terms of routing traffic around.
I think that the idea of a “public access Internet over the air” isn’t totally crazy, but that it’d probably need to use something like laser links and hardware that can identify and auto-align to other links.

That’s exactly the reason why I made it only work with user-defined aliases. That way it forces you to think of how to cover the most ground command-wise without needing anything interactive or too much response data. It’s slow but it’s functional and that’s really all I wanted from it. I can have scripts on my server that fix things and just invoke them with this.
