Over the last few days i've been working on a keyboard-driven Gemini browser written in QML. It's called gemalaya. I'll make a release in a few days.
Links can be followed just by pressing their "hot key" on the keyboard. When you hover some text, it's magnified, that's the only thing that requires using the mouse at the moment. Here's a quick demo of gemalaya browsing Station:

Just finished writing a basic gempub viewer called "gemv" (how original ...). It's written in Python with Kivy. It can read gempub or epub ebooks (they are converted on-the-fly). An AppImage is available here:

Started this python module to work with gemini and gempub archives. It has a 'gempubify' command that can convert epub to gpub. The code that handles the TOC is not so solid but the files load well in lagrange.

galacteek crawls the geminispace to build a library of gempub books:

I'm surprised that there aren't more gempub archives out there, it's really a brilliant format.
dvoz can now load Gempub files:

The goal is to make it easy to load gempub archives (loaded from gemini:// or ipfs://), and also to archive anything you want to a gempub.
galacteek now supports gopher. In the near future it will also be possible to have interactive, dynamic p2p gemini capsules, that is, be able to submit content (via gemini input requests) to an ipfs gemini capsule, making it possible to post comments, etc ...
Made a small video of browsing gemini capsules with dvoz (galacteek) ..
