  I think "plain" Gemini would me Mercuri (Gemini sans TLS).

  Also, using wireguard would require a client to use a library/software
program/kernel module, unlike TLS, which just requires a library.

  But hey, prove me wrong---get a working Gemini server and client using
wiregard and tell us how easy it is.
