"The Chosen" show — How many people here have been watching "The Chosen"? It's my favorite show. I've already been to see the Season 4 previews in the theater.
Superbowl 2024 — Your team? (there is a "don't care" option 😅)
It may be better to have this space muted by default. — It may be good to not have this space appear on the all posts by default. It may be better to have people "opt-in" to seeing posts from here on the home-page instead of being exposed to them automatically. I know there is a button to mute this space but as many people may not want to see this, it would be better to not have to go through the hastle unessesarily. Please share your thoughts! :)
How do you install your Internet browsers?
Do Geminiauts like musical movies?
@highlight — I can't believe it! As if Facebook wasn't invasive enough, they invent the feature @highlight and reactivate it annually for you! I just saw family and friends complaining about receiving notifications for the use of that tag 🙄 I searched a way to avoid this feature (also invited them to leave Facebook): 1. Click on “Settings & Privacy,” followed by “Settings.” 2. Scroll down the page, and click on “Notifications.” 3. Click on “Tags” to choose which notifications you receive. 4....
Help me with my next "real" interactive fiction — OK. It's writer/developers' block again. It's fun to do small gamebooks and such, but I want to build a real thing (tm) and that's scary. So I'm kind of paralyzed among choices, choices, choices. These are: A honest to the gods dungeon. You know the drill, get inside, get lost, fail to guess the witty riddles, trigger an obvious trap, smash into monsters that you could avoid by reading and thinking a bit more, and die just when you're about to...
Eindeutigkeit — If you're following my puzzle series "Eindeutigkeit", you can record your progress here, and/or give feedback. I'd be interested to know if anyone is getting anywhere with it, or even trying to. Please avoid giving any spoilers, even vague ones!
Gemini Space Demographics — Is there any data available about the Gemini Space demographics? Does this space appeal to the grey beards? Does it appeal to the youth, as an addition to the unsocial media apps? Who came, and moved on? Who stayed? I add a coarse poll on age, if you would like to take part.
great now we just need to make 11-12 more protocols and we'll have a full set — vote for which zodiac sign should become a protocol next
Curious what other OpenBSD users use as their main shell?
How do you run the Forth you write?
Mirrored Content on Gemini — Is it rude to mirror content on Geminispace? I'm not sure what my own opinion on this is, much less what others think. For example, if I make a post on my personal phlog on SDF, would it be rude to also post it to /u/Ruby_Witch on here? I mean the entire post, not just a link to the post. I feel like people are a lot more likely to actually read something if they don't have to click through. I like having my own private phlog where everything is stored, but it's...
which of these linux clients you prefer? (i also added web software that can be used under linux, though probably it was better to create separate poll for that).
<NSFW> Smolweb NSFW Content — Maybe it's not what the internet was originally designed for, but NSFW content is definitely one of the driving forces on the "big" web. What NSFW content have you seen or do you predict that you will see on the smolweb? Should it be encouraged or looked down upon and censored? Or neither? As far as what I've seen, there are some BBS (the...
[ POLL ] Astronaut vs Capsuler vs Captain vs Pilot — I have been never satisfied with the adoption of "Capsuler", if you run a Capsule then you should be an "Astronaut", on the wake of the Gemini spirit. However if we all are essentially Geminauts then the ones that have a capsule might be also "Pilots" or "Captains". What do you think? let me know your opinions! Thanks... 🙏
ANSI formatting What do you think of the use of ANSI formatting (for [31mc[32mo[33ml[34mo[35mu[36mr[0m and [1memphasis[0m) in gemtext? This is one of those cases where the current spec is silent. A tradition of using these escape sequences in certain circumstances has built up, popularised (and pioneered?) by Astrobotany, and later Wordo. It worked with some terminal clients just because they didn't think to strip the escape codes, and some graphical clients (Lagrange at least) then...
Favorite of the "other" Pac-Man games — I might be the only Pac-Man fan on Gemini and that's ok! In the off-chance that I'm not, curious what other people's favorite of the "other" games are. I'm excluded both Pac-Man and Ms. Pac-Man from this as everyone knows those. If you've even *heard* of one of these others, please give it a vote 😀
Q: What is the canonical water cooler place in Geminispace? — I'm wondering if I should start a tinylog and use gtl to stay in touch with people using a decentralized microblog. Or use the fediverse more. Maybe geminispace.org or… Essentially everything, which I want to share, for which a gemlog might not be the right place.
Exporting Bubble data in a "raw" format? — In addition to the human-readable Gempub archives, I've been considering various options for exporting your data out of Bubble in case someone wants to get their data out for other purposes. For example, one might want to use their posts as a basis for a personal capsule, or run some scripts to post-process them somehow. What would be the best "raw" machine-readable export format? Any good alternatives not listed?
Should we give Gemini page subscriptions a proper name? — There is no offical name for the Gemini page subscription specification. [gemini link] Some people call it gemsub or gmisub. I think it would be helpful, if the companion specification would mention a canonical name. If you want more options, put them in the comments, and I will update the poll.
Should Lagrange display a static emoji for Geminispace.org? — I know that this is a little unfair or even entitled, but life's not fair, so here it goes. 😉 Lagrange has some static emoji assigned to certain sites like `gemini.circumlunar.space`. As the BDFL of Lagrange and geminispace.org, @skyjake could add geminispace.org's emoji (🌒) to those few static icons.
How about we test a poll? — Bubble's polls have neat bar graphs done with box drawing characters. How is this working for everyone:
