@eaplmx What is "AntenaZINE" in the first place? I _had_ a brief look at the link you shared but I wasn't able to really identify what it was really all about -- Something to do with Gemini? 🤔

Yep! A collection in EPUB/MOBI as an ezine, from selected posts.
You can download the ezine from HTTP though

Antenna is an aggregator for Gemini Antenna on Gemini Protocol

@prologic No worries! Usually an e-zine is a fanmade or indie magazine distributed over electronic media. Zines were originally distributed by physical mail, and then by e-mail. Nowadays for the nostalgic feeling of Gemini, you can find a few Zines/Ezines there.

@eaplmx Ahhh I see. Is there a particular "format" for an "ezine" or is it just a bit of a pattern/culture in the hacker/indie space? 🤔

@prologic For format, do you mean using PDF files or such? I've seen blog posts, mailing lists, PDF files, and I haven't seen EPUB files that much.

For culture, yes, I've seen is a pattern of sharing knowledge selflessly. But also it's very unpredictable how long is going to last, or how often the issues are released.

@eaplmx Ahh okay, yeah that's what I meant. 👌 It's not too dissimilar from sharing posts via Yarn or sharing a Photo on Yarn or even sharing an Audio clip on yarn (_yes we support this too!_) 😂

@prologic I think it's something like grouping the best Twts of the week in a single container. Like some people create books from their blog posts or some artists create a book from the most active posts/pictures in their media.
