How it works

1

Register

Pick a username. Your capsule will be at username.gemcities.com on the Gemini network.

2

Write

Use the web editor to write gemtext files. A live preview shows exactly how your capsule will look.

3

Publish

Save your file. It's live instantly. No deploys, no configuration, no waiting.

Accessing your capsule

Your capsule lives at gemini://username.gemcities.com on the Gemini network. The Gemini protocol is separate from the web… you need a Gemini client to visit it.

Popular clients: Lagrange (desktop, polished UI), Amfora (terminal), and Elaho (iOS). A full list is at geminiprotocol.net/clients.html.

Once you have a client, paste your capsule URL and you're in Geminispace.

What this is

Gemcities is free, donation-supported hosting for the Gemini protocol, a small, quiet corner of the internet that strips away the noise of the modern web.

There are no ads, no analytics, no tracking, no paywalls, and no plans to add any. Every capsule gets 50 MB of storage, which is generous for gemtext files.

Think of it as Geocities for Gemini… simple publishing infrastructure, run ethically, kept simple on purpose.
