If you run Mozilla Firefox or Seamonkey, you can install an extension
that adds gopher protocol support.

For Seamonkey and Firefox before v57, you can download and install OverbiteFF:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/overbiteff/

For Firefox 57 and later, you can install OverbiteWX, that was
rewritten to use the web extensions API required by FF 57 and later.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/overbitewx/

OverbiteWX uses the public gopher proxy until a blocking bug in
Mozilla is fixed, but it works fine here.
