That being said, i'd like to throw another suggestion in for discussion:
Because of this, I have taken the liberty of creating a project and bug
trackers on Sourcehut. I will be coping the Gitlab issues and
repositories today.

Instead of moving to yet another source forge that caused emotional reactions
within the community for multiple times for different reasons,
we should go for self-hosting.
If there is any interest from the community i'd be happy to provide a gitea
instance especially focused on projects for gemini (not limited to the spec).
I've been running my own gitea instance for quite some time now [1] and i'm
maintaining geminispace.info, the widely used public search engine for gemini.
One of the benefits of using Sourcehut is that one does not need an
account to participate. Projects typically accept patches via email, and
the mailing lists and ticket trackers are open to anyone with an email
address.
Sourcehut can also be self-hosted if desired, though the process is
likely more involved than that for Gitea.

Gitea also has similar Javascript issues to Gitlab. Even without email,one can comfortably browse Sourcehut in Lynx. But thank you for offeringto host the project, René.
