   I still use gopher. I even operate a gopher hole at   
      
   gopher://gcpp.world   
      
   We have a growing community that is really friendly. Freenode has a number of   
   gopher channels and the members are helpful. People with coding skills have    
   created interesting scripts that scrape html content from websites and dump    
   them on a gopher page. One even does this with RSS feeds and, essentially, any   
   of the feeds I have been reading are now read solely on that gopher site. No   
   ads, no cookies, trackers, autoplaying html5 vids... Just pure text.   
      
   WElcome to the club.
