Random Articles on Gemipedia

=> Random Articles on Gemipedia

I love getting feedback on the things I make. It absolutely makes my day. It's also a steady source of suggestions on how to improve things. Yesterday I got an email from Santiago asking to add a "Random Article" function to Gemipedia to use for discovery. This will redirect you to random articles on Wikipedia.
So when I went to add a GetRandomArticle() method to our Wikipedia API client, I was surprised to find it already existed! Turns out, I had added this functionality last year without directly exposing it to the user and I had completely forgotten! I used it to stress test my Wikipedia HTML parser. Wikipedia is full of gross HTML (Table's used to t create 2 column layouts, etc.).

Software Releases/Announcements

=> Zond 0.4.0 release

I've release Zond version 0.4.0. Zond is a static capsule builder which works much like Jekyll, Hugo or Zola but for Gemini. It's the software that builds and maintains this capsule. This release sees a number of small improvements plus support for translations using gettext and Tinylog support. Release binaries are available for Linux x86_64 and aarch64 and for FreeBSD on x86_64, and are available on Codeberg, it's Github mirror and over gemini and spartan on this capsule.
