CLUSTER GEMINI-PROTOCOL-CLIENT · 15 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-06-01

Non-web protocol browsers

This cluster comprises terminal, desktop, and mobile clients for text-based non-web protocols (Gemini, Gopher, and RFC), plus a proxy service for Gemini content. Its dated history is sparse and irregular, with 9 entries from May 2019 to March 2023, including a peak of 2 in July 2021 and a gap after mid-2022. Traction is minimal, with all three leading products—gw2api-bin, rfc_reader, and DeBurrow—showing zero stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 15 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
