It sucks that google changed its chatbot name from bard to gemini and drowned this cool project out in the process. It's a beautiful simple thing, and feels like the internet as it once was and should partially remain.

yeah, every time I see gemini (the protocol) posts online I need to check whether it's actually about the protocol or about the Google thing (and so just ignore it) 😞
