# Gemini
The first thing I did upon launching my first gemini browser was open up a search engine [2] and search 'memes'. The first result was [3], so I followed it and was immediately presented with a quote from Ursula K. Le Guin's 'The Left Hand of Darkness', which at the time just so happened to be sitting on my bed ready for me to read that night. I've not generally been one for synchronicity, but there you go.
The simplicity, text-only and fundamentally honest nature of the capsules I've run into so far is intoxicating, refreshing, and emblematic of a web which I got but the briefest taste of as a child. It excites me, and makes to want to engage and share, explore and be open in exactly way the ad-riddled corporate hellscape of the modern web does not. Geminispace inspires in me a hope that human networks across the internet need not exist just to serve profiteering, not just to fight for market share, not just to get clicks and likes and follows and views.
There is a lot to be said for the usefulness and connectivity of the web, but we've lost so much along the way. Gemini to me is a candle in that darkness, a suggestion of a way out. A long-time lover of Apollo-era history, I think the name Gemini is apt. It's a step on the way up, on the way out, on the way to something beautiful. I am here for it.
For the record, I am enjoying The Left Hand. I was late for work the next day.
