Summary: What it's like to read Techrights without the images and without any of the HTML; we take a look at today's publications (so far 13 posts in total)

THIS is the first video that I do which goes through the day's posts one at a time. I chose to do this in Geminispace and it's shown in Lagrange (one of many clients/browsers for Gemini; I have nearly 10 different ones installed on this PC).



Geminispace is very big and it grows steadily. We alone have 41,000+ pages in Geminispace and it's reasonable to estimate that there are millions of unique pages out there.

"Internet Explorer is unofficially 'gone', Firefox is on the way out (Google will clip the umbilical cord), and the open Web is silently dying."As one might expect, a lot of the video goes through EPO posts, but I also mention the OSI bagging bribes from Microsoft. Today we learned that GNOME did the same.

Finally, a chunk of the video discusses Gemini's growth and why we need alternatives to the World Wide Web. Internet Explorer is unofficially 'gone', Firefox is on the way out (Google will clip the umbilical cord), and the open Web is silently dying. It rapidly becomes just an execution sandbox for a single family of Web browsers. That's neither safe nor technically desirable.
