It doesn't support in line images. You can store and download and image on Gemini just fine. In line images are a Trojan horse for ads, web 4.0 cannot allow any corporate control to the point of ridiculousness.
the whole thing is a silly exercise because it will never gain any real userbase because it doesn't fill any real need. Not even for a government (even a socialist one). Reminder that you can still make your own website that doesn't have ads. But companies are never going to use it because there's no value proposition. And it doesn't solve any problems of the existing web's underlying technology, only repeats them because eventually people would want to add actually useful features. Even the original html supported images.
edit: also you can make text-based advertisements.
The whole point of the project is a refusal of the principles of an internet that has been entirely coopted by capital. It's not trying to gain a huge userbase or fill a specific need or anything, it's just a cool project for people to share things that exists outside of the process of capital formation and value extraction. It's just something different, and I quite like spending time there. It doesn't need to do everything the current web does because it's not trying to be that.
Web 4 is just Gemini
gemini doesn't even support images.
