Farkle — I created the game Farkle for Gemini. Instead of playing against one another, you get 10 rounds to score as high as you can and rank on a leaderboard for the day. I still need to fix my cron job to reset the game every day, but it should be rather functional. bug identification or suggestions welcomed.
seems gemlog.blue is just a bunch of spam accounts. I was hoping to find real content.
What a BBS Is (by winter) — found this post about BBSes

Not that it gets a lot of traffic, but if you tried to submit to DSN Antenna over the past couple weeks and it was broken, it should be fixed now. I upgraded my server and the new version of Python broke things.
Can any suggest a python library to fetch gemini pages for parsing? There's a couple on awesomegemini but wasn't sure if there were recommendations. I tried ignition but the recent commit fails in init with a permission issue (chmod).
I find @solderpunk 's style of writing engrossing, even if I'm not super invested in the topic at hand, such as this one.
Lagrange points becoming important in the space race
Finally hacked together a Titan script for my capsule so I can post gemlogs from my phone. Also updates the index.gmi file with the new entry. Been wanting to do this for a while.
Just figured out what combining d̲i̲a̲c̲r̲i̲t̲i̲c̲a̲l̲ ̲m̲a̲r̲k̲s̲ are when I saw two gemlogs with underlined text.

Dictionary — I made a dictionary for Gemini. I was thinking this could be useful to link to within Spellbinding. Let me know if you spot errors or something breaks.
Oh look, more hate from the web. The funny thing is that this negative press still brings new people. How many times will this place get ridiculed? Don't care, I'm still staying.
I've been seeing a lot of new folks hopping on Station lately and asking how to do certain things (seems to be the first social stop for most). I know we have /s/Gemini and a few official spots to get started but I keep coming back to an official HOWTO for those wanting details on setting a capsule, working with client certs, how cgi works and how to code it, setting up a server, and aggregator. I know all these guides exist across Gemini but I think a well known central spot would be good....
Deep Space Network (DSN) Antenna — As per a suggestion by @solderpunk, I've rebranded my clone of Antenna to be Deep Space Network (DSN) Antenna, so as not to compete with the main site. In addition, the theme of the site is non-technical: deep thoughts for the deep space. I know that keeping technical posts off there will be challenging especially if you have 2 gemlogs back-to-back that are of both categories, but in...
Antenna instance — Just got a basic antenna instance running. The only feature that works is url submission and I haven't really tested it out. Please don't rely on it as a primary distribution hub as I just barely got it running tonight but feel free to submit links. I had to modify a few things from the instructions that I will compile for usage here for others wanting to run an instance. Update: instance seems to...
I think a "coding for Gemini" or "setting up Gemini" subspace would be beneficial. I remember @tomasino having some good intro videos. this might be a good place to discuss? I'd make it but I'm not a coder nor have time to moderate.
trying out a personal post...
