Personally, I would have probably chosen tildegit, since many of the
major contributors are homed in that community, or perhaps Codeberg,
or even sr.ht (Yeah pls don't flame me for that - it's a good
service), but Gitlab works and isn't GitHub so that's good.The only issue with tildegit is that it's restricted to people that arein tildes. You can request an account (real people are the onesvalidating requests after all) but many people wouldn't want to sign upfor a new service just to work on the Gemini spec. For instance, Idon't have a gitlab account and therefore am not participating in thosediscussions because why would I make a whole new account for literallyone thing. I do have a tildegit account which would make it better forme, but then you'd be putting lots of other people in my situation andcutting a lot of valuable contributors out. And yeah, github is a no-gofor obvious reasons.
I would vote for sourcehut because you don't need a sourcehut account toparticipate (same with this ML), while still keeping the discussionseparate from this list, which, IMO, should be announcements ofinteresting software and new capsules and things like that, plus formalspec announcements.
Oh yeah, learning to block users in your email server or email client isa valuable skill, particularly on this list unfortunately.
