I just wanted to chirp a "Thanks" here for all the work you've done to keep gopher going. I'm a daily user, have a small presence, and your work as an ambassador and steward of the protocol is greatly appreciated.
- classichasclass 6y agoI never intended to be the de facto BDFL for Gopher, but it sort of ended up that way. Still, I'm glad to see others appreciate its unique qualities and find it useful.
- skyfaller 6y agoI want to thank you as well. I've been really enjoying Gemini, and I don't think it would have happened without the resurgence of interest in Gopher. I want to make sure Gopher survives for retrocomputing, so that Gemini doesn't feel compelled to support the full weight of backwards compatibility for computers pre-dating the Web, and Gopher doesn't feel pressure to extend and update for modern needs (like privacy in a world of total surveillance). We need both, I think.
