I enjoyed browsing Gemini capsules using the Lagrange browser. Its look and feel is awesome and made me want to write smol websites again. I'm appalled by what modern websites have become. I miss making light but cool sites without an ounce of scripts in them.

Have you looked at the source code of a capsule? It's delightfully simple.

I'm not familiar with the Gemini protocol, but how does it differ from just starting up a webserver pointed at a single folder with an index.html? Isn't it still just as possible to make a simple site using http?
