You can also have fun by tagging arbitrary objects in git:<p><i>[...] you can tag any Git object. In the Git source code, for example, the maintainer has added their GPG public key as a blob object and then tagged it. You can view the public key by running this in a clone of the Git repository:</i><p><pre><code> git cat-file blob junio-gpg-pub </code></pre> <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;git-scm.com&#x2F;book&#x2F;en&#x2F;v2&#x2F;Git-Internals-Git-References" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;git-scm.com&#x2F;book&#x2F;en&#x2F;v2&#x2F;Git-Internals-Git-References</a>

Bloody difficult to read because of the thin white-on-black font, and reader mode is disabled because of how the text is filled in by javascript. Gemini is badly designed for reasons discussed here already, but this page is an example of why people felt driven into developing it.
