โฆ and own hardware.
After first having started this Gemini capsule on SDFeu, I now moved it to my own home cellar server running Yunohost.
In between I thought about moving my Gemini capsule to uberspace, but I then recognized that won't work since uberspace allows the operation of own services, but only on unprivileged ports. That's no problems for web services since they provide a reverse proxy, but won't work using Gemini.
So I decided to use my own hardware, based on IPv6 routing only (no IPv4 here).
Yunohost provides two nice apps to accomplish this quite quickly:
Gemserv, which is the server software, written in Rust
my_capsule, which is the template for a Gemini capsule, also providing a PHP translation to HTML
The latter needed to have applied some patches I submitted over here including a bugfix:
Pull requests at HtmGem repo at tildegit
Those were merged as of writing this, so I hope Yunohost will ship an updated app quite soon.
