Don’t ask me how.
I love that gopher is still alive. I wonder if there are any active Kermit site left.
Does this still work now that the API is shut off?
Yes. I don’t know exactly how, but I guess he’s basically web scrapping.
how?
I think he’s doing some sort of web scrapping, acting as a normal Web Browser.
my how wasn’t actually intented to be serious. it was just meant as a joke.
“This web thing is cool and all, but it will never replace GOPHER.”
– Me in 1992.
I actually never used Gopher before. I found about it at random: I saw someone asking for a lightweight browser. There is no lightweight browser - that supports all the JS, WebAssembly, Video Codecs… - and still’s lightweight. I started my research to find an video about “How bloated the internet is” and I found about Gemini, and finally Gopher… In the end of the day, I never answered that question 🫠
Hu, interesting
