gyptazy.ch is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
@ramin_hal9001 @louis I wonder then if a #Gemini front end would be feasible
I'm finally ready to unveil my new weird software project that I've been working on: #Cosmarmot, a #Gopher to #Gemini gateway. I've got a public instance running at gopher://cosmarmot.space. Screenshots below in TurboGopher on #MacOS System 7.5, and in #Bombadillo in #CoolRetroTerm (since I can't take a real screenshot on my VT420).
Useful (?) for #Retrocomputing: if your old computer will run a Gopher client, but doesn't have the oomph to do the TLS a Gemini client needs, point it at Cosmarmot and explore Geminispace.
Made with secret alien technology (#CommonLisp), source at https://git.carcosa.net/jmcbray/cosmarmot/.
@chimay Yes! #Gemini is too restricted, #Markdown would be great.
That's why "Hello world" was everything I made...: gemini://gemini.udoburghardt.de/
For me WWW today is the acronym of "World Wild Web".
The good news is that we already fixed the internet, "we" created an amatorial protocol called #Gemini that does very little in a secure and privacy-focused manner, featuring a smooth learning curve that allows anybody to grasp the concept and quickly use it.
After initially embracing the concept of Gemini, I ultimately decided to quit due to the minimal adaptation and benefits observed. While I was initially drawn to the platform's promising ideas, the lack of tangible advantages and slow adoption prompted me to seek alternative solutions that better aligned with my preferences and needs.
In all the time I had three (3!) uniq visitors on my Cpasule.
However, if you like to see more about #Gemini, you can still grab my lightning #techtalk here: https://cdn.gyptazy.ch/tech-talks/Geminispace_Gemini_Protocol/geminispace_gemini_protocol.html

Wow, #offpunk to browse #gemini and the web on a handheld device, by @kelbot
Awesome!

Yep, it took me a #gemini post to eventually understand the arcane art of derailleur indexing.

Sure, there’s no content on #gemini
That’s the point:

@gyptazy A big thank you for the suggestion about Gemini! It was new to me at least.
I'm currently installing agate as a Gemini server, but I'm struggling a bit with the interaction with HAproxy.
I look forward to receiving more valuable content from you!

Maybe an external converter or an add-on / plugin is the better was to go?
Do you remember Gopher? There's a modern version of it and I'm late!
