A modern, lightweight protocol between Gopher and the web.
Protocol Free
Gemini is a modern internet protocol launched in 2019 that sits between Gopher's simplicity and the web's complexity. It uses TLS encryption by default, supports a simple markup language (gemtext), and deliberately excludes tracking, ads, and JavaScript.
Our Gemini capsule hosts content in the Gemini way — clean, private, and focused on reading.
All Gemini connections use TLS. Privacy is built into the protocol, not bolted on.
Gemtext is a minimal markup format — headings, links, lists, and quotes. No complex HTML or CSS.
No cookies, no JavaScript, no analytics. The protocol makes surveillance impractical by design.
No Gemini client handy? Open Runable.app’s capsule in your regular browser with obsessivefacts.com’s public Gemini Proxy — a quick tour of Geminispace with zero install. For verifiable TLS end-to-end, switch to a native client when you can.
Well-known public capsules you can open in any Gemini client.
