tilde.team offers gemini hosting!

see our homepage for a list of users.

[gemini://tilde.team](gemini://tilde.team)
you'll need a gemini [client](https://gemini.circumlunar.space/clients.html)
to view that page or a [web proxy](https://portal.mozz.us/gemini/tilde.team/)

to be added to the homepage, simply create a `public_gemini` directory:

   mkdir -p ~/public_gemini

if you need a basic gemini client, [bombadillo](https://tildegit.org/sloum/bombadillo)
is installed and can even do [gopher](/wiki/gopher) as well.

cgi is also supported. make sure that you have a proper shebang and
set the file to be executable.

cgi must print the status and type per the gemini spec:
here's a simple example in sh

   #!/bin/sh
   printf "20 text/gemini\r\n"
   printf "hello world\n"

only the first line of the file MUST send `\r\n`

for more info see [the CGI page](https://tilde.team/wiki/gemini-cgi)

see you in geminispace and feel free to stop by #gemini on irc to discuss!
