+### 2024-01-05 happy birthday :)
+On this very day three years ago "geminispace.info" was born and being announced an the long gone mailinglist a few days later.
+And still today, with some adjusted bits here and some additions there, geminispace.info is essentially still standing on the foundations that ~natpen build with GUS. Kudos to Natalie

+We had some ups and downs over the years, but mostly geminispace.info has been a reliable source of information for the Gemini community. Atleast we feel so and we hope you do as well.
+
+That being said we'd like to ask the community to help fund the hosting cost of geminispace.info.
