To use the Gemini protocol anonymously, you can try the following.

Using the Tor browser, visit the following URL through the Gemini proxy

https://portal.mozz.us/gemini/cities.yesterweb.org/

and sign-up with a username and password.

The page will refresh and you will save your credentials.

A little later, your capsule should be listed in the directory, even if
it is not immediately visible.

Now download and install WinSCP.

https://winscp.net/eng/index.php

Before using WinSCP, close the Tor browser and run tallow.exe

https://reqrypt.org/tallow.html

Now we can manage our Gemini capsule via WebDAV.

While Tallow is running, you can start your Gemini client and visit
your capsule, and explore the Geminispace.

I am currently using the following clients:

Geminaut
https://www.marmaladefoo.com/pages/geminaut

Lagrange
https://github.com/skyjake/lagrange

Please remember not to do any mischief with it, so as not to spoil the
very beautiful Geminispace and its uses! The deletion of your capsule
is for sure!

Regards
Stefan

That looks cool, but a little tame. I think I'll get a capsule and put
some Trump stuff in there to liven things up a bit.

"Trump stuff"?

So you're going to make a department store changing room Gemini capsule where you can fingerbang some lady and lose a lawsuit to the tune of $90 million + interest for lying about it?

Very clever of you!

You haven't died yet? Put some effort into it.
