I kind of get it.

  • No images is because they want it to work in a plaintext environment.
  • No tables because you just know someone is going to use it to format stuff that isn’t tabular data, though I guess there isn’t a way to actually render tabular data either…

Mhm I disagree with your second point. Since you can’t use any styling on Gemini objects, you won’t get table layout as we had in dark ages of Html. With tables like in Markdown you can just lay out tabular data in an actual table.

Mhm I guess with the plaintext environment we still can link to external resources like images and other multimedia or interactives.

left right
All they have to do
is use empty cells with spaces
Where there’s a will
There’s a way
And people who use
tables for layouts
are fucking crazy
enough
to try
