@mngrif Had to go to the Gemini homepage from github, to try and find out what is it.

gopher.commons.host/gopher://z

Gopher link, that brings memories. Been there, 1994, Internet at uni only, accessing via ppp daemon from home and dial up line.

Fun stuff.

@mngrif Reading the Design Criteria now, and I like what I see.

Interesting. 👍

@design_RG @mngrif on Windows I use Gopher Browser for Windows (self explanatory name really). It's not the best but it's cute and gets the job done.

Also it helps that I themed it to look like QBASIC :thonking:

That is very neat. Thank you, Polychrome!

I recognize the text layout in the screens, as it showed in the browser we used at the time.

Kind of ironic to see a return to a light weight protocol like that, when today video is the real dog hogging bandwidth and gigantic data transfers on the Net.

A good thing to have this development; there might be a time when reduced communications could make a low usage protocol the way to go ahead.

QBasic, omg, I loved it. Used to teach high school programming, and it was a great language for that.
