It's always funny to see Gemini brought forward as an alternative to the web. It's a cute protocol for sharing simple documents but it excludes so many use cases. How would you order a shirt online? No sessions and no forms means no interactivity.
Commercialization is what killed the part of the web that I care about. I would happily use a web that hardly functions for commercial use. It’s not like the old Internet will disappear if you need to buy something from Amazon.
URL parameters? They worked back in the old days, so I don’t see why they wouldn’t work here.
