Gemini is a new internet protocol which:

  • Is heavier than gopher
  • Is lighter than the web
  • Will not replace either
  • Strives for maximum power to weight ratio
  • Takes user privacy very seriously

The design is inspired by the Gopher protocol, but mandates the use of Transport Layer Security with trust on first use (TOFU) and privacy-related features. It is not intended to replace Gopher or HTTP, but to co-exist with them.
