I look 10 years younger, after having been on Estrogen for a couple years.

This guy’s attempts to look younger have culminated in him getting on some Picture of Dorian Gray shit

There actually are a couple of search engines available on Gemini. If you install the Lagrange Browser, for Gemini, there should be a few listed on the “getting started” page

It used to be that you’d go to a website, and Firefox would have an RSS icon in the address bar, if one was available, that you could click, and it would let you copy the feed and put it in a separate rss reader, or you could subscribe in your browser, and save the feed as a bookmark.

This latter method was how I followed blogs, podcasts, and even Youtube channels, for years.

RSS feeds, my beloved. The firefox extension Livemarks, restores Firefox’s old RSS capabilities, and it’s so great

I use Lagrange and it works like a dream

I mean, to make a website, that’s probably true. But accessing the Gemini protocol is as simple as installing a web browser

what is the benefit of this compared to HTTP though?

For me, it’s kind of the novelty of it. Gemini is separated from the mainstream internet, there’s a mild barrier to entry, so it has a distinct culture and vibe to it
