Welcome back to the past.
I too am from Canada, in the Vancouver area!
I'm intrigued by Gemini and Gopher protocols, but I like plain old HTML. I'dYou can serve HTML pages over Gopher. You could build a gophersite on HTML only. People just prefers not to do it because gophr has better ways of arranging content-
The web is used by millions of people around the world every day (via a web browser or apps making REST calls & such via web erquests), so I'm not sure say it's such a failure.

I'm intrigued by Gemini and Gopher protocols, but I like plain old HTML. I'd like to see a simple browser that works with basic HTML get some traction, myself. I think back to the blogs I hand-hacked back before blogger.
Kmeleon loads my tilde blog (https://tilde.club/~poindexter) in around 100 megabytes of RAM just fine, and to me, HTML is easier to hand-code than Gemi or Gopher.

I've created a website, but decided against blogging. Blogging is fine when > is personal, but I've seen people who post articles as blog posts, which
doesn't make sense. Articles and writing which aren't a log would be better > served categorised, tagged and sorted.
it reminds me about when everyone was trying to do podcasts. most people just arent interesting enough.
