You simply can't write a "native" Gemini add-on. Mozillas dweb project(which would have enabled you to build protocols other than http intothe browser as an add-on) is dead in the water, everybody who had beenworking on it does not work at Mozilla anymore and the bug trackerstatus is like "we aren't really interested, maybe, if you write ityourself, we might accept it into the Firefox codebase".Only upside is that Chromium does not do much better.

No "native" Gemini add-on for Firefox? I don't find one in
<gemini://gemini.circumlunar.space/software/> at the "Browser
plugins"
entry [side note: for this sort of things, fragments in URI
<gemini://gemini.bortzmeyer.org/gemini/fragment.gmi> could be
useful]. But I do not see yours either, I assume this list is
maintained with some delay.
