It's great to have gopher and gemini protocol, but why not use markdown (or orgmode) as a simple yet powerful one ?

Imagine, your notes rendered natively in your browser : headings, lists and so on, but no bloated js.

@chimay Yes! #Gemini is too restricted, #Markdown would be great.

That's why "Hello world" was everything I made...: gemini://gemini.udoburghardt.de/

#GeminiProtocol

  • more heading levels : an elaborate document can require as much as 6 levels
  • links formatted like in markdown, this way you could insert one anywhere
  • hierarchical (nested) lists, if not already there
  • also, the possibility to have a TOC, especially for long documents.
  • tables
  • maybe some orgmode- style #+ blocs, like #+begin_center

that's all I see for now :)

chimay, to fediverse

With all that #fediverse effervescence, I just rediscovered #irc with #weechat, and realized that #neomutt also support #usenet servers. Going back to the source in a way.

#nntp

chimay,

@yeti @profoundlynerdy

so, if I understand correctly, usenet is a newsgroup hierarchy that uses nntp as protocol ?

lemmy can do it, at least in one level.

you could have :

fediverse.mastodon.bsd-cafe.coolhashtag
fediverse.lemmy.lemmy-world.vim

Not an exact mirror, but a start.

Correct. There are other newsgroups out there that use NNTP, it's just that Usenet is the oldest (est. 1978) and largest. It started as a "poor man's ARPANET."

Usenet has previously been passed over UUCP, NNTP, air-mailed magnetic tapes (yes, really) and x25 data links. So, I thought #ActivityPub would be worth trying next.

Thanks to @vermaden's article :

I 've just installed linux-brave on #FreeBSD.

I noticed that if you are running the ./linux-browser-installer when /compat/ubuntu is already installed, you encounter some errors.

You need to install curl first in the /compat/ubuntu chroot, or you'll see this:

E: Unable to locate package curl

Same thing for gnupg:

E: gnupg, gnupg2 and gnupg1 do not seem to be installed, but one of them is required for this operation

Funny how you end up using #apt on freebsd!
