In the 1990s, the web felt hand-made and diverse —
a place where people shared raw thoughts,
not personal brands or business or platform bias.
Maybe it’s time to rediscover that slower, smaller web again.
To seek essential, thoughtful information —
not the viral noise of likes, rankings, or social feeds.

🚨 Attention Gemini, Gopher, & Finger fans —

Adële ( @adele ) has something to show you:

Adële joins others who argue that — we shouldn't throw out all of the HTML "baby" with the broken-web "bath water" — but that instead —

We should use a restricted subset of HTML — and in particular XHTML.

Using a DNS SRV record instead of a DNS TXT record —

To make it so you can change the TCP-port and host of a finger-protocol request —

Seems like a reasonable modification to what I was proposing.

The finger-protocol could make use of DNS TXT records.

You could use it to change the TCP-port connected to for a finger-request.

You could use it to change the host connected to for a finger-request.

This has a lot of potential!
