@skyjake RFC 6066 says: Literal IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are not permitted in "HostName". So I think elpher is correct here?

@mbays You are correct.
It seems there is a bug in Lagrange here because it sets SNI even with literal addresses. And in fact the Gemini specification only requires SNI when a hostname is being used.
So, I have two bugs to fix here. 😅

IDK if this is universal, but i've been able to connect to direct IP's over gemini w.o issue. I guess it's a bug as detailed here. Cheers! (Has thought about doing this too, but dont wanna risk fams IP, gonna get a hotspot soon tho so <_<_<_<_<_<_<_<_<_<)
@skyjake So after the bug is fixed, does that mean that it won't be possible to host on a bare IP?
@flipperzero What does fams IP mean?
🚀 skyjake [mod...] · Feb 17 at 08:41:
@zorg No, it means hosting on a bare IP is better supported since it won't require SNI from the client any more.
Gemini on bare IPs — So, in case there are more people who know this stuff here, is it *in practice* possible to have a Gemini server on a bare IP? So far I haven't seen a single server that can do it, but then again I haven't checked in a while. Currently I've chosen to use Gemini-like simple HTML pages (over Yggdrasil), but still curious if things changed.
