I have been using this for a couple of months now and I no longer get yanked out of a flow state when I have lots of windows open. Window management has truly faded into the background, which wasn't the case for me with Sway/i3wm before now. So I'm quite pleased.
I think others might like it too.
It takes Gnus ten minutes to start up even with nativecomp, and hours to do its initial indexing (but you already have to give up that time for notmuch's own indexing). It's unusable without nativecomp.
I switched because I realised that I was hackily reimplementing many Gnus features and ideas on top of notmuch.el in my Emacs init. I had to fix some bugs in Gnus, and help the author of nnselect fix some much harder bugs, over the past nine months. It works well now.
I agree with you that those behind Gemini should take this issue seriously, but maybe something like what I've mentioned is what they have in mind as their answer. Not sure.
Extending text/gemini is more feasible indeed.
