I welcome all and every attempt to "rescue" the world wide web how it once was, even if modernized. I see this every time I try to use google search - google ruined the search engine. That was not a mistake; that was not an accident. The goal is to divvy up the world wide web into commercial interests that help sustain the google empire; the fight google waged against ublock origin also shows this.
I have no idea if Gemini can help revitalize the small web or not; I am a pessimist b nature so who knows. I fear so many things have changed in the last 20-30 years that some things may be permanently lost. For instance, in the early 2000s or so, a local university offered personal homepages for every student. This stopped in like 2010 or so. And never came back. At any rate, I welcome any idea to try to rescue the part of the world wide web not already destroyed by commercial interests. People seem to use private entities though; I saw that with discord. Then compared it to oldschool mIRC on freenode or galaxynet. Discord is private. I hate that.
