Yesterday, all of a sudden I remembered twenty-odd years ago, when I discovered guitar tabs. Years later, some of the results you'd get from googling for tabs were as effed up as the rest of the web...

Not sure how it's going nowadays, but... yeah, music tabs could work fantastically over Gemini.

There was also something called "abc notation" that would work. But I don't even remember how that worked.

I mostly agree with @darkghost. However, I think that even some text-based games would better work with others than Gemini, such as interactive protocols such as Telnet and SSH. A lot of things would be better served with protocols other than HTTP and file formats other than HTML; in some cases Gemini would be good but other times it isn't good.

Which websites would be better on Gemini? — From a user perspective, which websites do you think would be improved by being served via Gemini instead of HTTP, and why? News websites is a pretty good example I think, given that it'd give users direct access to key content without having to deal with ads and popups.
