=> < My first contribution to Geminispace | ~drgreengood

I'd love to hear you extrapolate on your 'wild west' comment. It does paint a sort of fantastical picture of a better web that could be, and I love that.

Best wishes

I just meant to say that Gemini is not a platform like Facebook or YouTube with its own "content moderation" and algorithmic feeds or "home pages" operated in the interest of a large corporation (and arguably one or more national governments). Instead it is like the web; it is not controlled by one or a small group of corporations, (bloc of) national governments, organizations or ideologies. Anyone can at the very least start their own Gemini host and start publishing whatever content or information they want (as long as it does not violate their local laws and the laws of wherever their host is located). And we should hope IMHO that content/information is contributed to Geminispace by as many individuals and organizations as possible, regardless of which nation (or other political entity) or ideology they are associated with, or in what language it is written. Because IMO the adoption of Gemini is an important goal in and of itself. I will elaborate on that in my next post, which I hopefully will be able to write in the next few days.
