Yes - the slice you visit can be changed for you by using the right user-agent (as suggested in TFA).

Why can't gemini space be defined by "Content-type: text/gemini" sites linking to each other and/or a limited functionality browser that doesn't render content you don't like?

It's hard to call it the web if your user agent doesn't support the web technologies. > Why can't gemini space be defined by "Content-type: text/gemini" sites linking to each other and/or a limited functionality browser that doesn't render content you don't like? As far as I care, it could be. The end result would be more or less the same: people would have this new format and a new bunch of applications that aren't compatible with the web. I'm not really interested in bikeshedding minor implementation details of that level.
