[06:58] schestowitz Yes, IRC can be hard to follow because of several aspects and what I meant to say is that the key in a Web page (or Gemini page) should be text rather than trackers, JavaScript etc. Gemini pages can still do art and link to art, but they try to keep the users focused and protected.
