★★½☆☆ A really basic Gopher client for Android. Features bookmarks and history, and not much else. I’m not sure there’s even a way to change the home page. The UI is cramped, and my URL bar usually looks like “gopher://go”. It does use icons to distinguish different link types, though it doesn’t distinguish local from remote links. Search is supported, and it will download files that it can’t display. I keep getting tripped up by the system back button not being mapped to the app back functionality, and going back to the launcher instead. Lagrange is much more usable (and more functional), plus of course it supports other small-net protocols too. DeBurrow appears to be a vibe-coded update of Pocket Gopher (the Java ME app, not the Android app with the same name), built alongside clients for several older macOS versions. Available from F-Droid. This post by Kelson Vibber originally appeared on Kelson Reviews Stuff
