IMHO, discoverability is a big problem. Since Tinylogs are decentralized, how to know what tinylogs exist? What are their URLs? If I see a "@username" reference in a tinylog entry (without any links), how to find the referenced tinylog file?

Why are there no links? There should be links, that's the solution to discovery 😀

The fact that there isn't a gemini-native tinylog reader is kind of a big problem. To my knowledge, the only way to follow tinylogs at the moment is to use the one TUI app that the spec creator wrote, use the hosted list of known tinylogs, which does not include all tinylogs (anywhere close to it) (how could it?)... and that's it. It will probably take a browser (ahem) having native support for the format to see more adoption.
