#geminiprotocol — Public Fediverse posts

@FediThing I suspect a lot of long-term Gemini (protocol) people think of it like Michael Bolton in Office Space. "Why should I change? He's the one who sucks."

That said, I do recall some re-focusing from the Gemini hashtag to the #GeminiProtocol hashtag at some point, specifically to mitigate the issue, at least with online posting.

@FediThing I thought about it when I initially got into #gemini. My hope is that at some point, the Google AI thing changes name, get abandoned, or that the whole Ai-hype collapses.
Then only #geminiprotocol will exist.
We’re in for the long game.

Is there any chance of the Gemini Protocol renaming itself in some way? I know it came before Google's AI but it's almost impossible to bring up Gemini (the protocol that has nothing to do with AI) without people assuming it is Gemini (the AI). It's like most of the character limit has to go on this disclaimer every time it's mentioned.

I know this isn't fair, but it seems to be the situation Google has caused?

Maybe it could be a variation on the name like "Gem" or "GemPro" or similar?

Has there been any discussion of this topic in Gemini Protocol circles?

Might still be an interesting couple of projects. Just that bit less interesting. The part of Gemini I like the least is the pointless messing about with certs.

And I guess this deserves some tags.

@Jamesthe1 I think it makes the most sense to look at Gemini & Gemtext in terms of the Gopher revival it came out of. Less "what do we want to throw out from the web?" and more "what bits of the web do we really miss when building with Gopher?"

So it ditches Gopher's arcane menu syntax and strict menu/document hierarchy in favor of basic hypertext links that can be used anywhere. It adds word wrap, since we're all using different-sized screens now, but makes it possible to keep ascii art/tables when needed. Then it adds TLS for protection against eavesdropping.

The result is something that's almost as minimalist as Gopher, but a lot more flexible. That makes it easier to get into than Gopher or hand-crafting your own website, plus it's still usable on low-spec hardware or networks.

I'm trying to figure out, what problem is #geminiprotocol aiming to address? I'm seeing that it's intended to coexist with HTTP/S, but I'm not getting a clear answer on what role it's intended to fill, really. I'm always interested in new protocols and languages, and what my goal should be with them, as well as what it is currently used for.
