Summer of 2021, HN --> https://lab6.com brought me to the tildeverse

Then issue 2, which came out shortly after, introduced me to Gemini:

I discovered gopher in 2017 through a post on hacker news. I just thought it was so cool that there was this alternate network protocol completely separate from the WWW, and it was actually still alive and being used by people. Then I came to gemini through gopher.

Via sdf's bboard, in 2020. Read the spec and was intrigued, and since it was Covid lockdown I took up the challenge in the claim that writing a client should be a weekend project, and was soon exploring the few gemini servers around back then in my own client (which I'm still using now!). Good times.

— How I Found Gemini

How I Found Gemini — Linked is the story of how I got here. I'd be interested to hear other stories if people want to share!
