I keep seeing posts: "Gemini needs to be THIS!" Or "Gemini needs to have THAT!" a YouTube proxy, content, engagement, drive....

Aaaargh! Nooooooo. Just no.

But that's just like my opinion, man.

There IS a file sharing service in Geminispace actually: gemini://hideout.cyber-cave.org:1966/

And Station… is pretty engaging 😅 · 4 months ago

totally agreed it doesn't need "youtube proxies" and stuff like that. if you want to watch youtube without distractions, run it via the terminal with mpv or something.

if people want to see random projects crop up, they should start coding them... · 4 months ago

I love Gemini as is. It gives the same vibes Web 1.0 did all those years ago! · 4 months ago

It's good that people are exploring these things, like a philosophical or mental exercise. But beyond that? Just use the normal web. · 4 months ago

Gemini should stay like it is in my humble opinion. It surely serves its purpose. And that is fully enough. · 4 months ago

I like it as it is really.

Yes, I'm quite satisfied with the standard. I think text/gemini is sufficient and has a lot of advantages over full markdown. It's much easier to develop for as it is right now. · 4 months ago

i also like it as it is, you can post external links, you don't have to use bigweb if you don't want to. everything's fine. · 4 months ago
