- thejohnconway 3y agoA lot… but what percentage? I’d want a protocol that recognised the semantic relation of images to text, and clients should follow that.
- anthk 3y agoWith Gemini, even with terminal clients you can open the inlined images in a typical blog on a gemini capsule with a fast external viewer, such as sxiv with you just can fullscreen with 'f' and q with 'q'. In the case of gopher, it's either a directory with a gophermap, or a text file with the content. You can't have two at the same time. Using a gophermap directory as a fake text post it's a bit of a hack abusing the 'i' item, and it can look really bad on some older clients.
