I've promoted Gemini to some blind people by adding the Elaho client to theApplevis app directory:

https://www.applevis.com/apps/ios/utilities/elaho

And I plan on talking about it more on Twitter, where most blind peopleare, and other places. I think Gemini can be a great, simple, content-richplace for blind people.Devin Praterr.d.t.prater at gmail.com

This seems like a great place to collaboratively add frequently asked
questions (and some answers) as well as maybe tutorials in sub pages.

Gemini seems to have some success
<gemini://gemini.bortzmeyer.org/software/lupa/stats.gmi> but one day or
the other, we'll have to move further and tries to promote it to normal
people. This is what is done for systems like PeerTube
<https://joinpeertube.org/> (or <https://joinfediverse.org/>, which
seems to be in french only) with a Web site explaining what it is, how
to join, etc, targeted to real people.
Now, don't get me wrong, I do not suggest to launch such a Web site
tomorrow. Gemini is not stable enough, the specification is not final,
and most Gemini programs are not yet packaged for typical operating
systems.
But creating such an "outreach" Web site takes time so may be it could
be a good idea to start working on it? (I have no special competences on
that field, I just suggest a joingemini.org could be cool.)
