Deurbanising the Web

[Benjamin Cronin]

I do think that the ability to embed pure text at the top of PDF files
is very interesting, as done in the creator's Issues #1 and #2. The
necessity to download the entire PDF document is a bit of a drag if
one is just viewing the plaintext/gemtext version, but I appreciate
their point that having one document to download and store is much
better than having two or more zipped together. I'm excited to see
them try to implant more and more filetypes into a "plain" PDF file.
