Computing words about Gemini

This is writing about Geminispace, Gemtext, and so on.

I want to preemptively mention that, if you’re just starting out as a capsule author, feel free to ignore all this information-architecture haranguing.

If you only kind of want to write, the last thing you need to do is pay attention to how to make edge cases work better for readers that you don’t have yet, and may never have. You can always go back later and add these niceities for other people when it’s actually maybe worth it, instead of probably not worth it.

Articles

Page persistence in Geminispace

Two articles here are kind of a pair. However, only the second one is relevant if you have a capsule of your own:

Save Gemini pages that you like to your hard drive; don’t (just) bookmark them

Put your capsule’s URL in your Gemtext pages

The first page exhorts you to make your archival habits robust to fairly widespread capsule disappearance and abandonment.

The second page exhorts you to make your pages findable again on Geminispace even if they’re saved to someone else’s hard drive.

Unascended Scrawlspace posts

Scrawlspace posts that are very much about Gemini, but don’t have their own pages. As of December 26, 2023, this is almost certainly an incomplete list.
