Gemini Digest, Vol 26, Issue 36

[charliebrownau]

Gday

1.
I would love to see newsgroup rival
for news (textural), low bandwidth photos/pics and low bandwidth files (podcasts,recipies, wood working/3d printing plans)

Problem is gemini protcol would have to support
* Username and password
* Encyption
* Proper text entry

I dont see the current workaround as a valid solution
that pass's text input back to the site as a half baked
workaround for search engines currently

It would be good if old opensource/foss newsgroup clients
were patched to support GNG (Gemini News Group)
both CLI + UI

Would the newsgroups support opt in multi server linking system
eg
Kitty Server
- cotton balls
- treats
- those dogs
- silly owner

You could connect to treats if other sections were down

--------------------

2.
I would like to see secure
IRCS , FTPS, newsgroupS and fingerS come back
without bloated http web, corporations, , centralised cloud servers , subverive elements

Along with support for alt DNS such as IPFS/OpenNic or something else to get around Centralised Censorship

------------

3.

Also has anyone dissussed a method to transfer email in bulk at certain times using gemini like the old fido mail BBS system
for gemini situations of low bandwidth, bandwidth limits
or partial uptime periods of time or different quota/speeds on the connection if self hosting at home or grid down issues

--------------

4.

Also whats the best Gemini server progrma to use
without systemd, dbus, policykit, java, python, dotnet
, snap, flatpak
for a low end vps to serve gemlog, gemcast stream
and a few picutures
