If that's the case for Yggdrasil, then you are *still* using TLS over it
(and it's not a replacement for TLS).

You're right, it's not a replacement - running Gemini without TLS overYggdrasil would break any client certificate apps. No alternative isgoing to keep those working. TLS is baked in pretty deep.
