While I like the idea of simple line-delimited formats for feeds,
I have to agree that Atom or RSS is simply the way to go here.
The Gemini Protocol does not have to use the Gemini Document
Format for everything. That's why the protocol supports MIME
types, so you can send over JSON, HTML, Atom or RSS.
By adding support for the Gemini protocol as a transport option
to common tools, Gemini RSS feeds will also become
widespread. Reinventing the feed format, along with the transport
format, is too much work and would limit usability.
