Reviews

Agate (Gemini Server) ★★★★★ A simple Gemini Protocol server for static files. Fast, stable, easy, and running the Gemini version of this site.
Buran ★★★★☆ Simple, fast, intuitive Gemini Protocol client for Android with a clean interface. Supports bookmarks and client certs, but not subscriptions.
Deedum ★★★☆☆ A full featured, if awkward, Gemini client for Android and iOS. Handles bookmarks, subscriptions and client identities.
Geopard ★★★☆☆ Simple desktop Gemini Protocol client with bookmarks. Polished, fits well with any Linux desktop but especially GNOME. Fast, no frills.
Kristall ★★★★☆ Cross-platform desktop browser for the small internet, including Gemini, Gopher and Finger. A little faster than Lagrange, but fewer features and hasn’t been updated in a while.
Lagrange ★★★★★ Lagrange quickly became my favorite Gemini client on the desktop with its clean and convenient UI, stability and speed across platforms. And the mobile version works well too.

Add a Gemini filetype to Gnome You might need to create a gemini.xml file and/or a .desktop file for your favorite Gemini clients. Here’s how and where to put them.
Quick Start: Setting up Gemini on a VPS Without Root Agate is easy to set up, you can use cron to launch it at start, and Gemini doesn’t need root to listen on its port.
Tell (most) Linux Web Browsers to open Gemini links with your favorite client Most Linux web browsers will open unfamiliar URL schemes with XDG, which will look for .desktop files for the applications that can open it.
Tell Firefox to open Gemini links with your favorite client You’ll need to click on a Gemini link to get the config options, and then you can choose what to open it in.

Now on Gemini I've added a version of this site that runs on Gemini, an ultra-light protocol that's somewhere between a souped-up Gopher and a stripped-down Web.

Gemini Protocol in Brief Imagine a super-minimalist web that runs fast even on slow connections/hardware, cuts out distractions. Mostly personal sites like blogs, hobbies, etc.
