13 a2728733 2021-07-18 op
14 a2728733 2021-07-18 op Gemini is a new internet protocol which:
15 a2728733 2021-07-18 op
16 a2728733 2021-07-18 op * is heavier than gopher
17 a2728733 2021-07-18 op * is lighter than the web
18 a2728733 2021-07-18 op * will not replace either
19 a2728733 2021-07-18 op * strives for maximum power to weight ratio

30 a2728733 2021-07-18 op Telescope is a Gemini browser written for fun, as hobbystic project in my free time. As such, it lacks tons of features available in others, more mature Gemini browsers, but it also has some unique ones.
31 a2728733 2021-07-18 op
32 a2728733 2021-07-18 op The UI is strongly inspired from Emacs and w3m, so it’s possible to notice various familiar concepts, such as the minibuffer or the tab line. Care has been taken to make it as familiar as possible for vi and “CUA” users too.
