Honestly, self-hosting could be okay, I just don't want to deal with the actual upkeep of maintaining a server of my own, you know? My day job involves servers and software and I think as far as geminispace goes, I just wanna be a user.

I hear you -- I probably wouldn’t feel differently were I in your shoes.

For just plain hosting a simple web site, neocities.org is where it’s at. (Or you actually get some web space with an account here on the midnight, if you weren’t aware.) Beyond that it starts to get more complicated, as I’m sure you know.

It does sound like a tilde or something would be the best approach. My bad experience isn’t necessarily universal, and I certainly found good people on there too. The only development I’m doing these days is front-end (and even that inconsistently), so a tilde is potentially overkill for me, but again, YMMV.
