OK, we're up and running.
I think I like this Gemini idea, it reminds me of how simple the web used to be. No overthinking how to put together a page. Simple markup, bam.
After spending far too long choosing a server to host the content, of course (and then actually getting it installed semi-correctly). I'm not sure I like any of them too much, they're OK I guess but I might end up writing my own -- the ratio of server writers to content creators is pretty high (compared to, say, http). And it'll give me the opportunity to learn more Rust or Clojure or some other language to write it in.
