Gopher is by definition the opposite of the web. However, the concept of "phlogroll" exist, though it's basically just linking to other holes from your own. Unless I misunderstand the concept of "webring" ?

The only thing a webring requires is a link on each website to another one. If it has external links then in theory it is possible.
However, resolution of the "next" site in the ring (as far as I understand it) is done when the link is clicked, which obviously requires some kind of code to run somewhere. |

That's not how I remember it and Webring also suggests the previous/next links were fixed at time of creation. Incidently, it also mentions webrings became obsolete when search engines were good enough to find content easily, so it might still be a thing for gopher.

Gopher has search engines, and they work pretty well. See Veronica 2.

Obviously the 1st IP address was IPv6 which my router isn't capable of. Phetch has now been updated and this bug has been fixed.
