Summary: People who wish to browse information quickly and easily ought to take a look at Gemini; the video above shows one way to use it for news, photos, Git/coding, and more

THE recent (but not most recent) version of Lagrange is shown in the video above. I've decided to demonstrate how I use it as a 'daily driver' for high signal/noise ratio. Lagrange is compatible with KWin translucency and all sorts of effects, but those aren't demonstrated in this video, which shows an October release of KDE Neon.



"Gemini is a response to many of the issues associated with today's "modern" (hostile) Web."The key thing shown this time around (unlike previous Lagrange videos) is multiple panes for navigation, not just the typical left and right panes. Web browsers don't typically offer this level of versatility; "modern" sites are very inflexible with their "webapps", which never put the needs of the visitor first.

For some recent articles in Geminispace we recommend exploring Planet Gemini. It gets updated every hour. For those who don't know what Gemini is, start in this page. Gemini is a response to many of the issues associated with today's "modern" (hostile) Web. Usability comes first, the user comes first, and information is sent to the user rather than about the user.
