Fair enough. I just consider it quicker wikipedia, especially for very simple lookups. For what it’s worth, I googled “gopher”, which, shockingly, showed me pictures of gopher. “Gopher network” showed me an online network dedicated to gophers. XD

I 100% get the AI hate, but it did explain it to me, pointed me to a browser, which I installed, and now I’m on Gemini, so I learned something and gemini got a new user.

First impression: good! Looks pretty cool.

this is the start page when I launch Amfora

Gopher is a 1990s-era internet protocol that delivers text and files through simple hierarchical menus.

The small web is a loose movement of minimalist, personal, and non-commercial websites built outside the corporate web.

Gemini is a 2019 protocol for browsing encrypted, text-first sites using a simple markup language called Gemtext.

To connect to Gemini, install a Gemini client like Amfora and open a gemini:// URL.

Thank god that at least they made them ask. Another thing I’m massively happy for is GDPR. I keep getting mails in my inbox for all sort of random accounts I don’t remember signing up for that I probably just checked out once and forgot about, asking me if they can keep my data, please, because if I don’t reply then they can’t, and they would REALLY REALLY LIKE TO C’MON FRIEND BE MY FRIEND
