Steven Frank, cofounder of Panic Inc., keeps his blog exclusively on gopher: gopher://stevenf.com:70/1. (He there links out to other gopher sites that may be of interest.)
Twitter users had fun trying to figure out wtf to do with that:
Some of the aggregators that I like:
Floodgap - generalist gopher portal with lots of links - gopher://gopher.floodgap.com/
Cosmic voyage: collective writing experiment - gopher://cosmic.voyage
Bongusta - phlogs aggregator & community - gopher://i-logout.cz:70/1/bongusta/
SDF - phlogs aggregator & community - gopher://sdf.org
Tildeverse: aggregator for tilde communities - gopher://tildeverse.org
Gopherpedia: reading Wikipedia through Gopher because why not - gopher://gopherpedia.com:70/1/
I would add gopher://magical.fish among those. And gopher://1436.ninja, maybe.
A video game wiki I use sometimes:
gopher://GiantGopher.com:70/
Games you can play on Gopher:
gopher://worldofsolitaire.com/
gopher://GiantGopher.com:70/--/Winnifred_Huck
There was another HN Gopher thread recently:
SDF has a pretty comprehensive site, hosting tons of stuff: gopher://sdf.org
Codevoid: gopher://codevoid.de
Quux: gopher://gopher.quux.org
These are some public Gopher servers but not sure which ones are notable/ interesting: https://www.shodan.io/search?query=gopher+port%3A70
I'm cobbling a gopher site for a book of metaphysics. It doesn't work for clients yet, but I have the gopher server in replit here: https://replit.com/@agamus/metaphysikos?v=1
gopher://magical.fish
gopher://sdf.org
gopher://mozz.us
gopher://bitreich.org
gopher://hngopher.com (heh).
Seriously.
Why one? Veronica lists a hundred or two - one can choose among them after checking them all, I guess?
