I want to reply, not to the aggregator idea (I do like it), but to the last paragraph here:

=> gemini://drewdevault.com/2020/11/15/RE-Is-this-aggregator-idea-good.gmi RE: RE: RE: RE: ....

> And an aside: I generally dislike this approach of using our gemlogs to have discussions via "RE: post title" and such-with. Isn't this better suited to the mailing list?

I don't think so -- there's a bunch of RE's that aren't about gemini the protocol at all (see: 5Qs, etc).  You can always check backlinks to see a "thread" here:

=> gemini://gus.guru/backlinks?tilde.team/~ew0k/is-this-aggregator-idea-good.gmi for Is This Aggregator Idea Good?

Now, that being said, I *do* think that Shannon is (a) a great name and (b) a pretty good idea -- tho we already have CAPCOM and Spacewalk.  But .  Why not a third?!

Eventually I'm going to set up the first two on breadpunk.club (or here?) with GUS's known URLs and known feeds lists.  Might as well try a Shannon too :)

Stay tuned.


# PS

:^) Of course, we could reimplement webmentions in gemini ... maybe call them RadioBursts, or why not EMPs?
