Will Gemini (or cousins) go the way of Linux? Or is it foverer condemned to go the way of Hurd

Gemini is dead in the water due to a double failure: being essentially Gopher in the form of a brutalist buttplug and being intrinsicably unimprovable. Gemini is less capable than CSS 0.1 for content presentation. It's like trying to publish your blog on EDIT.COM.

What we need is re-HTML+CSS 1.0. Yes: without Javascript.
