Just got my Wife @bookwyrm setup with Lagrange. She's def a normy so if you know of some decent non-tech capsules please say hi and post a link. She loves reading (esp. translated Japanese fiction at the mo), Goats, Squirrels and Capybaras.

Welcome @bookwyrm!

This winter I read The Setting Sun by Osamu Dazai. Can recommend, if history is also an interest. Welcome to geminispace.

non-techie here!! don’t get afraid of their lingo and stuff, they mean well :)

I'd say that if you're able, or even willing, to use a Gemini client, you're at least an honorary nerd. Few or my friends or family would, or would even understand what was being suggested to them.

welcome @Bookwyrm

my wife calls Lagrange, half-jokingly, the recipes' app, thanks to Ben Collver and the MOAR:

— The MOAR!

She was VERY tired of searching recipes on the web and finding.... well, what the web has become.

it's gopher, but Lagrange will get you there as well. So will deedum, or offpunk, or lynx, bombadillo...

Anyway, I'm a MOAR enthusiastic fan and evangelist

@jmcs Thank you for linking this. I have a sudden urge to try archiving all of these. (Actually, is there any way to download all the contents of a gemini capsule like this? I see that there's a snapshot of the recipes, but it's from 2022.)

🍀 gritty · Mar 18 at 04:29:

@jmcs that's great! I have some Finnish heritage so I might try some of those recipes.
