Some time ago I bought a LilyGo module tuned at 433 MHz, but with the built in antenna I couldn't reach anyone. Is this to be expected? Can I put the module to some use?

433 is not really popular here for the mesh networks. It's mostly dominated by weather stations, tire pressure sensors and gate remotes.

Check what channel your local area uses

Over here meshtastic is pretty dead, just derelict repeaters. All the conversation is on meshcore so be sure to check there too
