I might be missing some of it, but that's ok.

what I did, to discover stuff, was to use "Gemini subscriptions" in my client (offpunk works well for this).

I started by subscribing to antenna [1]. If I liked something, I would check their "front page", and decide if I wanted to subscribe directly. I also check the tildes users every now and then, and subscribe to interesting people (I do have a "list" called 'interesting_people')

Then, I started getting interest in gopher. So I did that as well.

Some day I'll consider I have enough subscriptions, and maybe I'll unsubscribe from antenna.

Hey guys thanks for the replies. I tend to agree and thats what has made me like it here. Slow net. The people here seem alot different then the people on the "internet". I need to get my gemini site setup and going. :) · 2 months ago

Just like others said already, I don’t. I just check my feed sometime, sometime I surf a bit and I never let FOMO attack :) It’s a slownet, slow life place. · 2 months ago

It really is just a case of find stuff and check in now and again. · 2 months ago

@aeolus sometimes i wish me more activity in gemspace cos the poeple here are much more interesting as in the big web · 2 months ago

"That's the neat part. You don't!"

There are aggregators, but I don't use them. If I find people's output interesting, I bookmark them and check in when I feel like it. Some days I will take 30 seconds to glance through new posts on Station or BBS, but geniunely I think the fun of Gemini is that you don't need to fall into the pattern of "keeping up." · 2 months ago
