Find: Stargazer Gemini Server — Today I found Stargazer, a gemini server written in Rust that supports SCGI. I've been using Molly Brown for SCGI development but wanted to see what else is out there. I know GLV-1.12556 supports it as well, but I think it's only via TCP(?), and I wanted to use UNIX Domain sockets instead. Stargazer does both. As some of you may remember, I've been toying around with SCGI on and off for a bit. My drive is/was to reduce the overhead of spinning up a new...
