#GopherVR

@uliwitness Nothing wrong about being text-based, or nothing non-modern about it. But there *are* GUI clients and isn't #GopherVR also a thing?

One of the strengths about systems such as #Gopher, #NetNews and #IRC is that they're interface-agnostic, you can have a 3D gopher client or a comic-strip IRC client, even if other clients are designed to work nicely in a #terminal or terminal emulator.

GophrtVR is a gopher client with it's 3D visualization tool for viewing resource collections as 3D scene. It's unic with it's 3D navigation if I dare to say among all kinds of browsers that I have seen. Although sadly it's in an uncompleted state there's e.g. the bookmarks functional witch if it clicked says "not implemented yet". But regardless of it's being alpha software and will stay in that state it's still fun to mess with it 😊🤩.

No era de extrañar que en Puerta de Hierro se apersonaran frondosas delegaciones en busca de consejos de Juan #Perón. El conductor en el exilio exponía sobre el quehacer nacional y explicaba cómo instalar #GopherVR en para navegar en #Gopher con #Ubuntu.

Do you know about GopherVR?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GopherVR

I used back in the 1990s.

But there has been a gopher revival going on

I.e., gopher is used today!

I wonder how many in the new Gopher community are aware of ?

since @enkiv2​ brought up Croquet while I still had sleepy brain, have a peek back at the rediscovery of #GopherVR in 2008
