more a question than a discovery: I'm very curious about professional news pages that might exist on gemini! so far I'm only aware of the German TAZ

TAZ is the only first-party one, I believe. There are various mirrors, though, for instance:

— NewsWaffle

@skyjake oh wow I didn't know NewsWaffle exists. thanks a ton. makes me wonder if a generic html2gmi proxy for the big web is possible.

since gmi does less than html there will be losses, certainly. but NewsWaffle seems to get a lot right.

Additionally, there is also gemini-news.com and a lobste.rs proxy:

— gemini-news.com

— lobste.rs proxy

@AnoikisNomads You can browse the web with the use of stargate proxy, recently i made a whole bunch of cgi scripts on my capsule for entering search queries into web engines through the gemini browser

gemini://tilde.team/~smokey/cgi-bin/search-engine-inputs.gmi

gemini://gemi.dev/stargate.gmi
