RE Is this aggregator idea good

This content is sourced from Drew DeVault's blog from before he removed the gemini capsule and content from his site.

This is an attempt to archive his gemini-only posts, as I found them to be of value, at least to me and wished to refer to them via an accessible URL.

Note that relative links within the content will not work. Links to static assets with extensions (jpg, webm, png) have been converted to git.sr.ht download URLs.

CAPCOM is open source:

=> CAPCOM

and, in any case, trivially implemented from scratch. I was thinking it would be cool to encourage people to start hosting CAPCOM on their own capsules as well, with a curated list of what feeds interest them. We could start adding CAPCOM links to our capsule's index pages to make it easier to move around in such a system.

Pros: requires very little effort or bespoke software development

Cons: requires very little effort or bespoke software development :^)

And an aside: I generally dislike this approach of using our gemlogs to have discussions via "RE: post title" and such-with. Isn't this better suited to the mailing list?
