kevinboone.meThe Gemini protocol has been around for over five years, but the world-wide web remains broken. This articles reviews what’s changed for the better over the last five years – and what hasn’t.

You’re being delusional if you think the Gemini protocol is any sort of socialist praxis. Even the author of the article acknowledges that its a bit of an ivory tower and embraces its elitism.
I welcome a place where academics and continue their discussions with some isolation from capitalism but Gemini will never be a protocol of the proletariat and therefore will have limited adoption.
