Thanks, I'll probably try out diohsc at some point. The linux box I mainly connect on is tty only.

@N10A If you are interested in the history of streaming over gemini, I recommend the following articles:
— gemini streaming (tomasino, on the gemini mailinglist)
— A vision for Gemini applications (Solderpunk)
— Mozz's Response to Solderpunk
Welp, when I tried to install diohsc it failed to make for some reason, guess I'm stuck with amfora for right now.

@N10A Sorry to hear. I'm considering developing a non-streaming alternative/workaround for browsers that don't support streaming. It'll just be a different page that shows the text history and will still let you send messages, you'll just have to manually refresh the page every so often to get new messages.
@clseibold Considering how quickly pages refresh on gemini that shouldn't that much worse of an expirience. On another note, hopefully I figure out how building things from source works someday because it never seems to work for me for some reason.

"you'll just have to manually refresh the page every so often to get new messages."
That is not an inconvenience at all. That is how it was before Ajax. It is unfortunate we now live in a lazy world where two clicks of the mouse is one click too many. :)

It is hanging on CHAT "Send Message" after submitting. Should I have put the @ in front of my username? Username supposed to be the same as our Gemini username?
🚀 clseibold · Dec 04 at 07:21:
@Minko_Ikana I believe that was a bug you encountered, and it should be fixed.

Thank you so much! Quick question... The send message did send my message, but the progress bar only went so far and stopped, while the wheel in the address bar kept spinning. It this normal? The titan upload did the same. But the text did also go on to the chat board. :)
@clseibold Are you still using
?
Seems to me you could move some of these posts there.
🚀 clseibold · Dec 04 at 19:49:
@skyjake Yeah, I sopped using it. It's just easier to click the New Post on the homepage. You can delete it if you want... unless you want me to make posts there! I can start posting in the AuraGem subspace again if it would make things less cluttered.
It's up to you. Posts can be freely moved to/from subspaces after publishing, so you can reorganize the posts as needed.
The advantage of using a separate subspace is that you get a dedicated topic-based feed.
If you decide to stick with /u/clseibold, you can also do sub-feeds by tagging posts, but those are not as easy for people to access. (Plus tagging is more work than choosing a subspace to post into.)
Generally speaking, I would recommend using subspaces more often than personal userspaces to keep discussion organized and discoverable.

@skyjake I forgot that moving posts between subspaces was a thing. I'll start using the AuraGem subspace for AuraGem stuff now then. Thanks!
AuraGem Chat — I have created a live chat in Gemini. This is obviously not the first time this has been done, but it was a fun project! It does save a history, but only for a day. After 24 hours, the whole history is cleared. [gemini link]
