+title: Blog now on Gemini - with DN42
+date: 2025-06-22 17:42 +0200

+
+The Gemini protocol is a minimal protocol to serve content, and is
+the "spiritual successor" to the Gopher protocol.
+(Do not confuse with Google's AI Gemini. I hate naming collissions),
+
+It took some tinkering, especially because Gemini's markup language 
+("Gemtext")
+is deliberately
+minimal, and Jekyll can't output/convert Markdown to Gemini, so I had to
+take "the ugly route" to convert the "finished" Jekyll HTML page to Gemtext
+via the below-mentioned tool, which basically does
+HTML > Markdown > Gemtext.
+I can't directly use the raw Markdown files of my blog, since I use
+Liquid tags.
+
+Anyway, my blog is now accessible in "Geminispace", alas, only within DN42,
+because I'm too lazy right now to do it properly. (With the DN42 namespace
+isolation and all). And also, it's a really "nerdy" protocol, with I don't
+know how many users.
+
+`gemini://uvok.dn42/`
+
+Addendum: What I really like is the "feed" specification, which basically consists
+of separate lines of <br/> `=> $link $date $heading`, <br/> and browsers like
+Lagrange can subscribe
+to these (like RSS feeds, but the format is much simpler!).
