How is this any different from a generic "Index of" site/page?

...

Pretty much the same. Gopher menus often also mix inline text (i) items in between resources (directories and files) but a website using only these autogenerated index pages would basically be the same as Gopher in structure. The real difference would be in how the structure is sent to the client, i.e. the protocol. The Index Of pages are HTML whereas Gopher uses a much lighter text format.

Mozilla even titled menus "Index of ...". They serve the same purpose, gophers just think we should have stuck to this information-driven format instead of treating web pages like art displays and ad billboards.

I don't know if any of you used this, but it was extremely useful in the dial up era and could very easily still hold its own today.
