With its slowly growing content I see an opportunity for #GeminiProtocol to become a standard to keep using old machines that otherwise would become e-waste.
Most of the web is painful to unusable today if you have a PC that’s one decade old or more. Yet the majority of actually useful information is still text with a few included documents or images. Gemini will always be useable on E-readers when we know the web content may sometimes be readable but mostly not.

I'm browsing Gemini and hosting my capsule on machines that are way over a decade old! In fact, web is one of the few things making these machines obsolete, probably the primary one. If you cross the web out — there are still lots of uses for old computers.
And yes, we all know the limitations of Gemini, there are things that you would never be able to do with it.
@santiago
Even things that would probably have to do in one way or the other if commercial or just more general public interest for it arises, but for people like me — who prefer mostly text content and who like to keep the content and the representation of it separate and have to use extensions, CSS hacks and reader mode to bring the web closer to it, Gemini is perfect!
