The point of this article is to get you browsing gopherspace quickly and to share some of my favorite gopherholes…

Waffle

I wrote a Gopher Protocol client called Waffle. Please read my post about Waffle.

Dillo

I wrote about Dillo in a separate post.

Lagrange (Android, Linux, Mac, Windows, iOS)

Lagrange is a Gemini + Gopher Protocol client (maybe more?) for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux, I think.

Linux (Flatpak)

Here’s how I set it up:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install flatpak
flatpak install ./fi.skyjake.Lagrange.flatpakref

You may wanna run:

flatpak list

This is how to launch:

flatpak run lagrange 

at first you may get this at suome point:

$ flatpak run lagrange

Note that the directories 

'/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share'
'/home/tilde/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share'

are not in the search path set by the XDG_DATA_DIRS environment variable, so
applications installed by Flatpak may not appear on your desktop until the
session is restarted.

You may want to log in log out/restart session or something.

Try opening gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:7070/

gopher

try gopher -p "/" gopher.someodd.zip 7070

My favorite gopherholes

  • Of course my very own Gopherden forum: gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:7070/ and my gopherhole built with burrow gopher://gopher.someodd.zip:7071
  • gopher://mozz.us/: has some games, a flash archive, and other things. If you’re using Lagrange they also have gemini://mozzu.us/!

Also checkout the Gemini protocol!

I think the Gemini Protocol is worth checking out!
