< Is gemini a read-only protocol?
Ohhhh I see. I haven't dug in to all the details yet, in that case yeah not sure how to login other than maybe a 6 digit one time password somehow? and that gets messy. I hope to implement a client in a month or two once I finish a few things and so I'll need to learn at least the basics.
Maybe a signature for the text based on a public key setup previously over a browser? That does sound close to another protocol though so maybe it's right that it shouldn't be in gemini at all?
Now I'm even more ambivalent than I was! ahaha. I'm going to have to think about it.
cheers

Any kind of logins on Gemini should generally be handled with client certificates.
Ohh I'm writing a client myself, in Rust.
A toast for writing gemini clients!
