How to Track the Development or Construction of the Techrights Web Site and Gemini Capsule

Seaside construction
Our ongoing work will yield results



Summary: Following some busy publication schedule (heavy lifting for weeks) we're stopping a bit or slowing down for the purpose of site (or capsule) 'construction'; here's a status update

AS we noted earlier today, there's lots of 'construction' going on at the back end, hence not many new articles over the past 3-4 days.



Such 'construction' work will be easier to track from now on, using the Git front end that limits some things for privacy purposes and security purposes. The front end is in gemini://, but it can be accessed with an embedded web proxy, as below (or directly with a Gemini client).



Today we made it possible to see recent changes or a concise summary of all changes. The stats page now shows popular Gemini pages (for the previous day alone). As per the latest numbers from Lupa, there are now over 1,600 known and publicly-accessible Gemini capsules (the complete number is higher; those are just the ones known to Lupa) and Techrights is, at least at this moment, listed on top:

The gemini:// stats
That's us at the first slot (the real number of pages in our capsule is over 37,000, but Lupa stops at 10,000 in this current configuration)



"As we explained before, it's a form of SLAPP protection or censorship circumvention because of all the proxies."There are many upsides to Gemini, which is still quite young. As we explained before, it's a form of SLAPP protection or censorship circumvention because of all the proxies. It's not the principal purpose but a side perk. EPO dictators [1, 2] have long attempted to prevent access to information. We move the goalposts a bit by changing protocols (IPFS is also used).
