Does anyone know if there a way to use mastodon over Gemini?

I have been thoroughly enjoying playing around on a pubnix in the tildeverse (I am tilde.club/~mycrobe). I think the thing the initial experience of using a really well thought-through command line environment has been my favorite part. It was surprisingly lovely to have a multiplexer, mail, irc, etc all set up, and set up well, along with various public_ directories for serving content, was the most magical part. I'm still struggling a little bit with finding community and talking to folks. The IRC and mastodon hosts seem kinda sparsely populated. But then I kinda-sorta always struggle with the talking-to-people part, so this shouldn't be terribly surprising…

I've bought the bits to upgrade the iMac, but need the time to install them. New CMOS battery, an SSD, more ram, thermal paste, that sort of thing. Now I just need the time to install them!

I would like for my iMac G4 running OSX Tiger to have a simple gemini browser with a GUI. Which is hard to find. mcross is close. It's python/tkinter, but it uses ttk widgets, which don't work on tigerbrew's python3.7 install. I *think* I can just fall back to tk widgets and it should work, but I haven't tried it. For now I'm just using openssl directly on the commandline like god intended. (And lagrange on a modern mac, e.g. to write this.)

I own an iMac G4, running OSX Tiger. I have managed to get the following working to my satisfaction on it:- iMessage - I wrote a proxy that runs on a modern mac that bridges between my iMessage database and XMPP. I use the XMPP client on the iMac G4 SSL - I'm using a proxy called WebOne that runs on a raspberry pi, so most apps on the mac can see most of the modern web over http. Mail.app for email. Using fastmail with an app specific password. It's missing the last 15 years of security updates but I'm sure this is fine. OmniWeb for web browsing. It's faster than safari and is approximately as broken NetNewsWire Lite for RSS. Works pretty well.
