Gemini Articles of Interest

A Gemini client^* is needed for the following links.

• Technology and Free Software

  • Analog challenge

    Now I have to use a smartphone more often (as a remote control for some home equipment) so I have decided for a small challenge.

    The plan is to be as non-digital as possible.

  • It's 16 Messidor, year 231.

    I recently learned that tilde.pink's mail setup works perfect, with mutt pre-installed, and I can accept and send email at my username at tilde.pink. If anyone wants to reply to my posts directly, this is an option!

  • Internet/Gemini

    • Gemtext Tweaks

      I agree with Acidus’s points about tables: they are far, far too heavyweight for Gemtext.

      The “burned in” tables look good to me.

    • Somehow I like this one more than that. Whatever shall I do?

      I believe passionately *reading* - especially paired with *some* public effort to indicate that reading took place - is at least as important as passionately writing, else I suspect most will eventually lose heart over what slowly, increasingly feels pointless effort - as we can simply "post" writing to local files if we truly don't give a shit whether we're read.

^* Gemini links can be opened using Gemini software. It’s like the World Wide Web but a lot lighter.
