Ive spent time working on making uses with Gemtext - the format that 
supports the protocol, Gemini.

Here is a non orgmode example (developed with GeneNetwork), which covers 
knowledge and kanban-boards,
featuring a simple parsing of a Gemtext repo - with people contributing 
within different folders
https://github.com/genenetwork/gn-gemtext-threads

Its available on the CLI via Tissue (Guile).
Here is a talk going into it:
https://fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event/tissue/

Here is is exported to html, via Skribilo:
https://issues.genenetwork.org/topics/guix-system-containers-and-how-we-use-them

That particular Gemtext file that generated that example can be found 
via the blame icon (this approach works via git-blame):
https://github.com/genenetwork/gn-gemtext-threads/blame/main/topics/guix-system-containers-and-how-we-use-them.gmi

I hope that helps.
