I am so sorry, I accidentally replied to the wrong person earlier!

And thank you so much for actually testing it out for me! I really appreciate you writing out the detailed steps. I’m going to try it right away. Thank you!

@gritty

Thanks for the advice! My theme settings were at their defaults, but I wasn't using the full paths, so I'll try changing those and see how it goes. Also, I didn't know about using full paths or tmux, so that’s really helpful! Thank you!

Instead of modifying the config, you can also use `alacritty -e amfora`

@sy

Since it can be done with such a short command, I don't think I even need to bother writing it in the config file! Thx!

Thanks, everyone! Everything went perfectly thanks to you all. Now I can finally start my comfy life with Amfora!

...By the way, is it also possible to post on this BBS?

@knshow If you mean post an image here, yes you can do it in the draft composer. The image needs to be smaller than 100 KB, though.

Hi, @skyjake! I'm currently posting to this BBS using Lagrange, but I was wondering if it's also possible to post from a terminal browser like Amfora.

🌆 skyjake [mod...] · 20 hours ago:

@knshow Sure, you can use any Gemini client that supports client certificates to post here.

🍀 gritty · 12 hours ago:

with Amfora you have to split your pem certificate from Lagrange into its two parts and specify the locations in the config file for each site. I think there's an example on amfora's wiki. it's cumbersome but not too bad once you get it set up, especially if you only use certs on a few sites.

@skyjake Thank you! I'll check my client certificate settings.

@gritty omg, thank you so much for explaining how to do it! You're an absolute lifesaver. ily <3

Seeking advice on enjoying Geminispace via CLI — Hi everyone. I’m currently using QTerminal as my main terminal, but I’m trying to set up Alacritty specifically for exploring Geminispace with Amfora. (I've only ever used GUI browsers before.) I’ve been trying to customize the colors to my liking, but I’m having trouble. I believe I need to coordinate the settings between Alacritty's alacritty.toml and Amfora's config.toml, but it keeps crashing (force-closing). Following advice from Gemini AI,…
