Thinking about it, I should do that too.

I separate my posts into three (for now, at least) categories, being
"experiments", "posts" and "micro logs".
Experiments are where I mess around with Gemini/Gemtext, so it only
makes sense for them to be Gemini-exclusive.
"Micro Logs" are stuff I post every now and then that contain
(sometimes multiple) short posts that I feel are too short for normal
posts. These are also Gemini-exclusive.
"Posts", are the (somewhat) more polished stuff I write. They are
accessible via HTTP "by default", but for some stuff I will intentionally
make them Gemini-exclusive, depending on their content.
(I also have "reply" posts (just one for now). They are also
Gemini-exclusive by nature)
"Posts" are actually special, in that they will always have HTML versions
available, even if not listed. This was originally a bug until I decided
it could be great for sharing and turned it into a feature.
Everything I talked about also gets uploaded into a public Git repo and
both versions of the site get built from the same sources, with HTML
being the "afterthought" (All posts are written in Gemtext)

> leaving the shortest bits for the Fediverse.
I have a CGI script to show the most recent (20 i think) fediverse
messages I posted as Gemtext. It might be useful for you too, assuming
you can run Python CGI scripts in your server:
https://git.ebc.li/admicos/blog/src/branch/main/cgi/thoughts.py
It should work on any reasonably modern version of Python assuming
`requests` is installed.
