Summary: There’s now yet another option for browsing Gemini space (with Gemini protocol, gemini://) and it’s called Moonlander, a GTK3-based application


BROWSING Gemini capsules isn’t easy because getting software for Gemini is not yet easy; in most GNU/Linux distributions there’s nothing in software repositories for this purpose, so people must download binaries or compile from source, at least for now.


“Amfora has a lot more features, but the downside is that it doesn’t work with a mouse and textual elements are always of the same size, even headings.”Last night in the Gemini mailing list the first alpha of Moonlander was announced and then received some feedback regarding accessibility. The software is now available for download (AppImage) and I’ve taken it for a spin to demonstrate its simplicity. So far I’ve seen no crashes and bugs. Maybe it’s considered alpha because of the lack of features. Amfora has a lot more features, but the downside is that it doesn’t work with a mouse and textual elements are always of the same size, even headings. Both are developed in Rust. █
