Hello there!

Thank you for posting your new Gemini space.  I'm enjoying your writing.

What do you prefer for a client?  I'm having trouble with some terminal 
based clients and navigating numbered links that require two keystrokes 
(e.g. 24 would navigate to the second link then the fourth on the new 
page instead of link 24 on the original page.)

I've made several attempts to make a blog in the past, myself.  I'm 
excited about Gemini for its simplicity too.  Markdown (or org-mode) is 
nice, but with Gemini text it is much simpler, and I think having less 
options actually helps free you when writing.

It's not complete yet, but I'm slowly working on a static site generator 
that uses Gemini text as the primary text format.  It'll render it to 
HTML for multi protocol hosting without a proxy.

I've been happily exploring others' writings on Gemini as well.  I don't 
know where I'll host it, but I've started the git repository for my own 
site and writings here:

I wish you the best and I look forward to reading more of your posts.
