I can't put a finger on why but it feels cool. And Gopher? I remember I wanted to get into it one day

I was a relatively early user of Gopher, from 1994 up until 1997.

How was it?

Mostly informative. There wasn't much trash on the Internet back then. A lot of magazine articles, news papers, university resources, etc.

Yoooooo ActivityPub on Gemini?? That's AWESOME!! Now combine it with this, mwahaha.

I've been sitting here in the U.S., anxiously watching various legislations creep through, and waiting patiently for AP implementations on alt-internets to emerge lol. Gemini protocol still requires TLS, right? Is it maybe in some ways potentially just as susceptible to censorship, but much less likely to get noticed/targeted at all?

OP

It's not exactly 'on alt-internets', the federation part is nothing special, just HTTPS and ActivityPub. Only the UI and user authentication are done the Gemini way.
