Bonum Certa Men Certa

Techrights Became (Quite Probably) the Most Active Capsule in Geminispace and Maybe the Largest

Gemini stats
Lupa, the best known Gemini crawler, stops indexing at 10,000, but we have over 41,000 pages



Summary: As Gemini space (or Geminispace) continues to expand our focus on it increases; today we take a quick look/stock of the scale of our capsule and how fast it grows

Every single day we write a lot of posts and also make public a bulletin along with IRC logs. There are a bunch of other pages, some of which are indexed partially e.g. by Lupa. Those other pages are statistics and planet archives, to name daily ones (there are also new pages for months and years as they commce). That makes up about 20 new pages per day or about 600 per month. The latest statistics suggest that some time later this summer we'll have over 42,000 Gemini pages and the index shows the past 3 days' worth:

We're trying to post quickly and frequently about subjects of interest (which we also understand reasonably well)



Whether we're most active or have the most pages does not matter so much; it's also hard to measure until one surveys other capsules by asking them. The more important thing is that hundreds of unique people/address read us over Gemini directly and over the Web gateway is is thousands per day. This means that time we've invested in Gemini certainly paid off. It also makes us more invulnerable to the demise of the Web or the open Web. We always invite others to join us. The Internet is not going away, but the open Web has already gone away.
