Gemini can serve other mime types, so if you'd like to servetext/markdown you are able to do so. The gemini format for .gmi or.gemini is intentionally stripped down, but is itself quite similar tomarkdown.

If a few people start serving content with that mime-type, you're likelyto see some of these lovely clients add support to render it as well.
