    Another thing I like about Gopher is that it was designed essentially to be a mounted read-only networked filesystem. Works well with the whole UNIX philosophy of "everything is a file".

      Oh I didn't recall that part, might have to relearn some things of Ye Olde Gooden Times, but if so, that's wonderful!

      Perhaps there is something like mount.gopher in the AUR already....?

        I'm not sure about the Linux world, a quick search reveals https://github.com/ewe2/gopherfs which seems like it'd do the trick.
