Gemini seems to have some success<gemini://gemini.bortzmeyer.org/software/lupa/stats.gmi> but one dayor the other, we'll have to move further and tries to promote it tonormal people. This is what is done for systems like PeerTube<https://joinpeertube.org/> (or <https://joinfediverse.org/>, whichseems to be in french only) with a Web site explaining what it is, howto join, etc, targeted to real people.

Now, don't get me wrong, I do not suggest to launch such a Web sitetomorrow. Gemini is not stable enough, the specification is not final,and most Gemini programs are not yet packaged for typical operatingsystems.

But creating such an "outreach" Web site takes time so may be it couldbe a good idea to start working on it? (I have no special competenceson that field, I just suggest a joingemini.org could be cool.)
