I first came across Gemini after making my own HTTP alternative TUI-over-the-wire protocol (uggly)[1].

Gemini has the same motives as I had when I started, but I didn't switch to it for all the same criticisms that are mentioned in the article (e.g. TOFU, no visualization support, no stream/data support, no cookies for login support, etc).

I'm really glad to see that the desire for a simpler protocol is still going strong though.
