Support the Gemini protocol (kinda like gopher but new)

@ruarí I actually did that search but the search results didn't look relevant (too used to the regular web?) I just didn't think of clicking through all (... wow, 3! ...) search results
You wrote quite a lot in a few days. Recycled? (pun intended)

It is somewhat recycled but everything was tweaked/updated. In addition I have written a couple more now that entirely new (albeit just as dull).

The only thing it desperately requires is an atom feed so all your fans can access your content asap.
I was almost tempted to self host as it was not obvious how I could setup an atom feed from Gemlog Blue but in the end I decided to move to Flounder (
gemini://ruario.flounder.online/
), which was both easier than self hosting and is more powerful.Again Gemlog blue's limitations meant proper redirects were not something I could see how to setup, so I just redid all the pages so that they point to their Flounder equivalents.

@ruarí Already subscribed hours ago ^^

@luetage Hey… how did you find that so fast? From my manual redirects or a search?
-
@ruarí I followed your redirect.
-
@luetage Ok, well at least I know those work!

By the way… I just got notice from Ariane, which is the Gemini client I’m using on Android, that they will halt development of the client, remove all 3rd party code from the project, rename it and release a paid version. Ariane wasn’t that great to begin with, but the other Android clients are even worse. At this point you almost have to switch to Termux and start using a command line client. Anyway, as mentioned before, in my opinion it would make sense to try and introduce a Gemini client in Vivaldi for Android first. There isn’t much competition.
Well there might be 'soon'

@Ruarí is that to say the race is on with Vivaldi?
-
@ruarí Sounds like he doesn’t particularly care for Android…

No traction or interest thus far (outside of my own). I think, right now, our resources are a bit stretched.
But… this is Vivaldi… never say never!

No he doesn't but he is doing it and makes a good client elsewhere. I still think this is something worth keeping your eye on.
-
@ruarí I don’t really like Lagrange, does too much opinionated styling in my opinion. But yeah, the Android preview looks a bit more subdued than the desktop client. Still want to see a Vivaldi implementation. I mean you, WildEnte and I are already a triumvirate of Vivaldi users in favor of a Gemini client. If that’s not a majority, I don’t know what is.
-
Let's do a Kickstarter initiative to implement a gemini reader into Vivaldi. I will pitch in a keg of Kölsch beer.
-
@wildente I have a pair of used shoelaces to offer. We are off to a great start!
-
I've been looking into the Gemini syntax because I have a website dedicated to character stories and artwork, and I'm interested in potentially writing a Gemini version as an experiment. If Vivaldi supported the protocol that would definitely encourage me to actually give it a shot

I add this to my search engine list, it permits to access gemini sites

@luetage Have you tried Rocketeer (on TestFlight)? I haven't but it might be worth a look

Sorry I had you the wrong way around. You use Android. For some reason I was thinking you used iOS.
