@smokey @dimkr For devices where TLS is really not possible, there's also the option of running something like Cosmarmot on a Pi on the same network, it translates Gemini stuff to Gopher. See https://git.carcosa.net/jmcbray/cosmarmot/

@solderpunk (Seeing myself mentioned in your reply made me blush) Proxying is definitely an option, but I prefer not to add a "computer" that acts as a "TLS accelerator" for the Pico W running my Gemini capsule, and Gopher is not really an alternative (because of the fixed width and other limitations). I want to like Spartan but I'd prefer an "exactly Gemini minus the TLS" protocol supported by all conformant Gemini clients, for the sake of code reuse.

is there some tls implementation for small devicdes? there is a tcp stack in kon-tiki, and maybe other implementations. is it possible to use tls on some 8bit device with 64kb of memory? i am thinking of potential implementations on avr, 6502. i guess m68k may even run real openssl library?
