gopher.envs.net
A pretty nice gopher proxy which I will probably start using (to link to gopher content on the web) since proxy.vulpes.one is no more.
portal.mozz.us is great, it supports many other protocols (5? the last I counted) but would prefer something with a less brutalist design when presenting gopher links to the more unaware, to preserve the "vibes" of a usual gopher experience.
rawtext.club - social contract
cabal.chat

Cognitive Load is what matters
There are so many buzzwords and best practices out there, but let's focus on something more fundamental. What matters is the amount of confusion developers feel when going through the code.
Confusion costs time and money. Confusion is caused by high cognitive load. It's not some fancy abstract concept, but rather a fundamental human constraint.
Since we spend far more time reading and understanding code than writing it, we should constantly ask ourselves whether we are embedding excessive cognitive load into our code.
