I’ve been testing Gemini in Lagrange browser for a couple of days now. I like the concept and philosophy behind it. Simple, small sites, mostly text based.

But, I’m wondering why most of the browsers for Android are unmaintained and outdated. This protocol is perfect for mobile. No overloaded pages, small file sizes etc.

It seems that development of a lot of Gemini software discontinued a couple of years ago. What happened?

    @squirrel The peak of interest in Gemini passed around that 2 years ago mark. The idea of “scrap this edifice and let’s see if we can do without” is not currently in zeitgeist, and the AI debacle became the trendy thing. (and stole the “Gemini” name too)

    When the AI bubble explodes, I expect we’ll see another wave of interest.
