Jason McBrayer <jmcbray at carcosa.net>:
I'd *like* to fairly rapidly get hosting a Gemini capsule to be "as
simple as hosting a Geocities site in 1996", and from there, make
progress towards "as simple as having a LiveJournal in 2004", the
catch being is that I want to do this with as little Web Platform
technology as possible, and preferably none.
this could be done as simply offering a nextcloud hosting that leads
to a directory published on the gemini server. That's a bit overkill
but will be easy to access to non tech people I think.
That's certainly a thought! I'm not sure how straightforward a nextcloudsignup is. My current thinking is towards a cross-platform native GUIapp that provides a fully-integrated signup (within a ring of supportinghosting providers), reading, and publishing (over scp/rsync). But Idon't currently have the sporks to implement it.
