Statistics on the Gemini space

This page presents some statistics on the current state of the Gemini space. It has been updated on 2021-06-01 00:04:01Z.

It cannot claim to represent the entire space. The real number of URIs is certainly higher. There are several reasons why many URIs are not in the database:

On this page, "working" means there was a successful connection recently. "recently" means "less than 31 days". "Dead" URLs and capsules are removed after 46 days and no longer appear in any statistics.

Currently, our database includes 315,882 URIs, 251,215 of them having been checked successfully (status code 20) and recently. Among the recently accessed, 179,731 URIs serve a Gemini content.

Resources

The average size of the resources is 28,602 bytes.

Quantiles

Quantiles only for Gemini pages

Ranges

Most common media (MIME) types

Most common languages

Most common language tags

Most common encodings ("charsets") for all files

(Remember there exists testing capsules, with very exotic encodings, so don't be surprised by some strange ones.)

Most common encodings for gemtext files only

By the way, 4,931 of recently tested URLs (1.704 %) have a wrong encoding (it does not match the actual content).

Status codes

(Remember there are test capsules with funny status codes, to exercice Gemini clients.)

Links

(We count only backlinks from external capsules, and at most one link per capsule. Also, we exclude links from capsules like search engines or directories.)

Maximum number of incoming links: 151

Average number of incoming links: 0.08

Capsules

There are 1263 capsules. We successfully connected recently to 1062 of them.

Most common capsules by number of working URLs

Most common capsules by number of bytes in working URLs

Certificates

918 (86.4 %) capsules are self-signed, 111 (10.5 %) use the Certificate Authority Let's Encrypt, 33 (3.1 %) are signed by another CA (may be not a trusted one).

37 capsules (3.56 %) have an expired certificate.

Algorithms:

Key types:

Key sizes for RSA:

Key sizes for ECDSA:

TLS

81 % of the capsules use TLS 1.3, 19 % use TLS 1.2.

34.4 % of URLs do NOT send a proper TLS shutdown (application

close). Even 26.0 % of those who return status 20 are in that case.

A proposal to make this shutdown mandatory.

Ports

7 working capsules (0.7 %) use an alternative port

Addresses

748 IP addresses used. 13 % are IPv6.

Addresses with most virtual hosts

TLDs

There are 160 TLDs in the capsule's names, and 776 registered domains.

Most common TLDs

By number of registered domains

By number of capsules

(There's a strong bias towards TLDs which have hosting services such as flounder.online, which has many capsules in subdomains. See before the TLDs per registered domains, which are probably more useful.)
