Hi folks, I'm happy to announce Twinq, a new, graphical, Gemini browser: => https://git.sr.ht/~bendb/twinq It requires Qt6, cmake, and a modern c++ compiler, but no other dependencies. It's easy on the eyes (the content, anyways), and the browsing/TOFU/protocol experience is pretty stable. We don't yet have features like bookmarks, home pages, etc - will get to those soon enough. Eventually we'll have installers for precompiled binaries, but for now one must build from sources. The goals for Twinq are - to be lightweight (well, as lightweight as any Qt app can be :) ) - to have a simple implementation - to be portable It's reasonably successful at these goals, save portability - I've only run it on linux. Who knows what's in store on other platforms! I'm hopeful to hear from one of you on that front. Cheers, Ben

After installing qt6 (several hundred megs), it built very easily. I like the TOFU popup. And it built very fast. Overall, nice work. Good to see a qt6 project. Coleman
