I've enjoyed Gemini too, albeit exclusively through a "gemini to web proxy". (I've become a bit hyper minimalist about computing devices, preferring vanilla Chromebooks and their Linux-y "terminal" environments, a few essential packages (vim, tmux), sticking almost exclusively to Lua for more elaborate scripting, so the idea of a standalone Gemini browser sounds like first steps toward maintenance misery....)

Managed to get with Gopher spaces a bit too.

So many wonderful writers down both paths.

I use Gemini browsers since I'm more used to how a web browser works, and by using the mouse. Makes it easier to get into. Although, I do wish I could configure it to look more like a terminal, with fancy scanlines and everything, I like how they look. I guess I could try making my own Gemini implementation and doing it myself.

I've found a lot of writing-focused places around the smol web, and I like reading what they have to offer, you can learn a lot from them.
