So, as everyone here, I played around my own client too. In my case it was Gopher@AROS&FreePascal. Yes, Gopher was chosen due to lacking TLS... gemini://iam.smol.pub/arlanpost
Favicons are super. But I am curious, what is the next step? .css and .js on a server near the .gem files? "Client U r using does not support GemAssembly. Please install the latest Guugle Grome in order to use our gemsite", "Allow Minisoft GID certificate to get access to our unique horse shit"?

I gave a look on list of plenty gemini software yesterday. First impression was "Gemini is so simple protocol, it will be ported to everything. And it is clear confidence". But later I realized that the most of code is in Python, Go and Rust. There are no Pascal, may be only one plain C project. There are no clients for AROS, Kolibri, FreeDOS. And gemini even not mentioned on their forums. Luckly, I have two (ported) clients in Haiku. Conclusion? Gemini producted by (our) new generation of smoothie drinkers. Here we relax, play and learn programming. Even gemini itself is ideal for obscure platforms and more suitable for the old systems than common http, it would not appear there immediately.
amazing stuff!
