[ANN] Amfora, a fancy terminal browser for Gemini

1. colecmac (a) protonmail.com (colecmac (a) protonmail.com)

Hello Geminauts,

Today I released Amfora, my client for Gemini. It aims to be a great looking,
featureful browser... all in the terminal. It is similar to Bombadillo, but
has colors and stylings, *tabbed browsing*, and brings in a lot more deps.
Sloum, if you're reading this, thanks so much for all the work you've done
with Bombadillo.

I aim to add a lot more features to it over the coming weeks, like bookmarks,
downloading, header navigation / TOC, client certs, and feed subscribing.
Let me know what you think!

The Linux AMD64 port works fine on my Slackware machines. Good work.

Heck yes, this is amazing - thank you. 

I'll be tracking this project to see how it shapes up, it looks very 
promising and worked very well on Alpine under WSL.

Neat! The linux-arm7 binary mostly works on my phone (in Termux), but it
looks like it tries to load pages over IPv6, which doesn't exist on my
WiFi network? I can send a screenshot if it would help (I admit that
this is a particularly weird edge case that you may not be interested in
pursuing).

I'm not sure why this would happen... I'll accept a screenshot yeah, but this
might be an issue with Go and Android, and not using Android binaries, etc.
My TLS connection doesn't specify any special preference for IPv4 or IPv6.
