I figured you had hit "send" prematurely, but I'm not surprised that mobile Gmail is still wonky. Google's motto ought to be "Even in the future nothing works."

I only started using email frequently a few months ago, and it's
similar in a way to Gemini for me.

Yeah, email can be pretty chill as long as spam and office life haven't ruined it for you. :)

It's just people's thoughts put into text. And a generally pleasant
space to be in.

I like the lack of immediacy; there's no option but to take your time and think.

Agreed with all of this, Gemini is a place for people, and people that
want to be here (but don't know it) will find their way.

I agree, but when I migrated to Geminispace again (this isn't my first time) I made sure that my website pointed to my capsule via portal.mozz.us. If people want to visit my site that badly they'll find a way.

Gemini isn't just about it's privacy-by-default and it's simplicity,
the community is the real thing that makes it good.

I like not having to worry about presentation. Once I've formatted the text, how it looks depends on the client, and is thus no longer my problem. :)
