Geminispace is Very Large

posted by Roy Schestowitz on Oct 10, 2025

Less than 3 months ago Lupa knew of 3,100 online capsules and later this month it'll probably be at 3,200+.

Geminispace is still growing, no matter what Google tells us when it hijacks the technical term "Gemini" (in relation to the Net).

The word continues to spread and the number of participants grows. After the "hey hi" hype stops maybe the term "Gemini" will belong to Gemini Protocol again. █
