minus-square@krash@lemmy.mllinkfedilink7•1 year agoGemini is encrypted by default, but they both share a lot of similarities.

minus-squareTrollivierlinkfedilink1•edit-21 year agoI remember seeing it mentioned here and there in 96, 97 when I first got access to internet. I was never curious enough to dig further. I just know it’s another protocol…

minus-square@nilloc@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoI used Gopher a bit, but we were just looking for free games, and usually ended up on a big college FTP server. Then Netscape changed it all. Eventually Hotline came along and was our favorite way to get warez.
