Firefox isnt really an unchained portal because it is too heavy. Heavy tools goes at the expense of modifiability and understandability, reducing its ability to provide freedom to the masses.

But firefox is a portal for the hypertext web. A web that demands heavy portals. Thehypertext web can therefore never be saved. Not by Mozilla nor anyone else.

We dont just simply need another portal, we need another web that encourage the developement of #𐑤𐑲𐑑𐑢𐑱𐑑 and unchained tools.

@pixelcode My suggestion is to take inspiration from the gemini web. Gemini gives back the control of development through gutting the features. This means one needs only one developer to create a browser.

The hypertext web is too bloated because its features are eternally expanding. This demands excessive amounts of resources to keep up with.

We have two options. Embrace the gemini web, or create a new protocol.

The solution to control over development is #lightweight and #𐑳𐑯𐑗𐑱𐑯𐑛.

@bitzero I believe this overlooks the potential for gemini. It isnt intended to do the same thing as the regular web except less. By requiring no design experience from the site maintainer, it enables more people to join in. It lays the foundation for gemini to become a distributed web, where everybody completely owns their own pieces land.

Is there an operating systems that encourage lightweight software, in the same way gemini (#𐑡𐑧𐑥𐑦𐑯𐑲) does this? #radicalDesign #humanArchism #𐑪𐑮𐑦𐑯𐑡

Tools being open, doesnt mean that they are good. We should also strive for lightness. And we should create systems that encourage lightness.

Because lightness means its easier to change, add features, make more accessible and so on.

The gemini (#𐑡𐑧𐑥𐑦𐑯𐑲) system is great demonstration of this. The lack of features means that one can write a portals in 200 lines of code, if not less. Last time I counted, there was 40 different functional independently developed portals for gemini.

Im an activist and I look for software that takes back autonomy. I have some network and can encourage them to use and finance these projects.

We need accessible, flexible and studyable code. That means free software, lightweight and down to earth documentation and naming.

Something that helps us organize.

@freezr Why? Abbreviations are horrible.

We need to move past abbreviations and I love that gemini makes it easier to understand what the protocol actually 𐑦𐑟.

I believe https:// should be changed to hypertext://. 𐑞𐑦𐑕 would make 𐑦𐑑 easier to research and understand 𐑦𐑑𐑕 nature.

Is it possible to do federation in gemini? Has anyone done it? Is ActivityPub compatible with gemini?

What gemini server do you use and why?

#gemini #𐑡𐑧𐑥𐑦𐑯𐑲

I want a gemini server that allows me to run it alongside other gemini servers. So that I can host for example vegafjord.me and njesperanto.space on the same server.

#gemini #𐑡𐑧𐑥𐑦𐑯𐑲

Gemini should focus on accessibility. That would give them an undeniable bragging rights over hypertext.
