LoraWAN sort of dominates agriculture IoT (the S is for Security) market. I guess it depends on your target area, but it is alive and very well.

Even if you aren't a blockchain fan, Helium[1] is still alive and well. It is helping spread LoraWAN even further. I live in central KY and have several helium networks near me. Never in a million years did I expect blockchain to end up on farms in Central KY, but here we are.

I have seen farmers using LoRaWAN, and The Things Network has pretty good availability in Europe. It's not really for smart home uses, more industrial/long range applications.

We have 10s of thousands of street lights using LoRaWAN amongst other things.

It’s very much being used! Just might not be that obvious.

I have a lorawan weather station, it's for outdoor long-range stuff

I'm curious, what station are you using?
