Gemini and Tor?

1. shardiame (shardiame (a) disroot.org)

Does anyone have an thoughts or experience running hidden sites using 
Gemini? It seems like a great pairing.

The simplicity of the Gemini servers and (typical) use of static only 
content leave very little to attack or exploit on the end point. Handy for 
keeping those hidden services... hidden. 

The lack of privacy destroying features mean that, for the client side, 
the risk of client deanonymization should be much less. No cookies, 
WebRTC, JavaScript, etc.  

I did a little bit of experimentation and running a Gemini as a hidden 
service worked easily enough.  

Running Lagrange and a couple of other clients through Torify worked on 
the client side.  

I think I'm going to move forward and build up my Gemlog as a hidden site. 
Is anyone else doing something like this, or have any interest in doing 
so? I'm also thinking it would be interesting to setup something like 
Capcom for hidden Gemlogs, if it doesn't already exist.

Checking the Lupa <gemini://gemini.bortzmeyer.org/software/lupa/> database
seems to indicate that there are at least two onion capsules:

lupa=> SELECT name FROM capsules WHERE name LIKE '%.onion';
                              name
