minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish12•1 year agoGopher and telnet are not the same sort of thing. Gopher is like the Web. Telnet is like SSH. Gopher lets you fetch documents and directories off of remote servers that can link to each other. Telnet lets you connect to a remote server as if you had a terminal on that computer.
