@norayr instant messaging is not exactly the same thing as a bulletin board or a "social media"; and I am not really interested in such way to communicate.

However, almost every day I connect to an IRC Gemini chat, so personally this area is already covered... 😉

@freezr for some reason I hadn't considered joining an IRC channel about gemini, even though I have started using IRC a bit. So now that you mentioned it I found the one on libera.chat. Is that the one, that you are using?

@meidam one of them: #gemini-it the Italian Gemini Channel...

let me just mention two things:

• there is an xmpp multi user chat (muc) dedicated to gemini:

room: geminauts

server: chat.kwiecien.us

or in other way: xmpp:geminauts@chat.kwiecien.us?join

• xmpp has social networking extensions. however the only two implementations that support these extensions are movim (movim.eu) and libervia.

movim is written in php, and it has a fancy web interface.

libervia is written in python, and has not only gui, but also a minimalistic console client.

This week into Geminispace has been very addictive... 😁 I am seriously thinking to set aside all the HTML stuff... Between BBS and Station there is plenty of interaction. I found, or rediscovered, the Geminispace is more engaging and less distracting, there isn't anything to consume so you don't waste time scrolling for nothing... 🤔
