So, just had a trackfire of an argument about using compressed files in geminispace on the mailing list. I should have known it was not going to be productive, lmao.

Just for anyone that doesn't know, the Gemini spec doesn't prevent or "outlaw" specific filestype from being downloaded over the protocol - that'd be called censorship, basically. Letting browsers open compressed files is not against the spec, whatsoever.

You can make your site just serve text/javascript if you want. Probably won't be widely adopted though as a convention. But totally valid and within the spec ยท 3 years ago
