   I see. That checks out. I haven’t been keeping up with Geminispace since   
   late-2022 to be perfectly honest.   
      
   So I’m not sure if it’s gaining some use outside those who use Gemini   
   because they want Gemini to succeed.   
      
   Don’t get me wrong, it’s a noble cause but it usually results in capsules   
   being about Gemini and not much else. At some point, you do run out of   
   interesting things to talk about and share about Gemini that it just sorts   
   of fizzle out on its own.   
      
   Glad that there are those who use Gemini for some utility beyond just   
   wanting Gemini to be real.   
      
      
   Cheers,
