About:
Amfora is a feature-rich terminal browser designed specifically for the Gemini protocol, offering a modern and accessible way to explore the 'small internet'. It provides a clean, text-based interface with support for bookmarks, tabs, and history, making it an excellent choice for users seeking a distraction-free browsing experience outside of the traditional web.
Key Features:
  • Tabbed browsing and bookmark management
  • Built-in support for the Gopher protocol
  • Customizable theming and keybindings
  • Integrated history and search functionality
Use Cases:
  • Browsing Gemini spaces and Gopherspace from the terminal
  • Reading gemlogs and capsule-based articles
  • Developing and testing Gemini content
Alternatives:
  • Lagrange – Lagrange is a GUI-based browser with more visual features, while Amfora is terminal-native and lightweight.
  • Bombadillo – Bombadillo is a non-web browser for Gopher and Finger, lacking Gemini support compared to Amfora.
