View submission: bigger gemini protocol community
I've actually never stood up a gemini server myself but it seems simpler than an HTTP server?

I think what /u/innocuousAzureus is referring to are all the easy alternatives to running your own HTTP server. Yes, running an HTTP server is at least as difficult to run your own Gemini server. But you could use GitHub pages? You could use one of the many crazy cheap providers where you upload your files over FTP or some other means, and you just take care of that stuff? Wordpress? And all the other alternatives. I think, the HTTP has a much larger ecosystem which lowered the barrier to be very accessible to non-technical people too
