I'm aware of it (and while not being super enthused about it, I can my personal interest growing over time as the internet keeps tracking the way it is).

But how does it help with a page recommendation system? Is there a strong culture of that sort of thing on Gemini?

in gemini you typically find pages using Antenna (gemini://warmedal.se/~antenna/) here you would find different blog all across gemini. also you could go to bbs(gemini://bbs.geminispace.org/) to discuss stuff of variety of range.

Man, their website is pretty off-putting. Where's the get-started/dive-in type page? How do I use the thing?

Iirc it's Geminispace.info

I could be wrong since I only visit their Gemini capsule.
