It looks like a pretty standard bitmap font to me. Very legible to my eye. What’s wrong with bitmap fonts?

Read the original gemini version then. I have not looked at it, but gemtext has no support for setting fonts at all, so it can not use a font you dislike unless you set that up in your gemini client.

Reader view in Firefox does the job.
