GemCities – Free Gemini:// capsule hosting

GemCities launches free hosting for Gemini protocol capsules, allowing users to publish content at username.gemcities.com without server knowledge. The service offers 50 MB storage, no ads or tracking, and includes a Gemini-native forum for community discussion.

Publish on the Gemini small web in minutes. No server knowledge required. Just sign up and write. Pick a username. Your capsule will be at username.gemcities.com on the Gemini network. Use the web editor to write gemtext files. A live preview shows exactly how your capsule will look. Save your file. It's live instantly. No deploys, no configuration, no waiting. Your capsule lives at gemini://username.gemcities.com on the Gemini network. The Gemini protocol is separate from the web… you need a Gemini client to visit it. Popular clients: Lagrange https://gmi.skyjake.fi/lagrange/ desktop, polished UI , Amfora https://gitlab.com/tslocum/amfora terminal , and Elaho https://elaho.app iOS . A full list is at geminiprotocol.net/clients.html https://geminiprotocol.net/clients.html . Once you have a client, paste your capsule URL and you're in Geminispace. Gemcities is free, donation-supported hosting for the Gemini protocol, a small, quiet corner of the internet that strips away the noise of the modern web. There are no ads, no analytics, no tracking, no paywalls, and no plans to add any. Every capsule gets 50 MB of storage, which is generous for gemtext files. Think of it as Geocities for Gemini… simple publishing infrastructure, run ethically, kept simple on purpose. There's a Gemini-native forum at gemini://forum.gemcities.com where capsule authors can introduce themselves, share their work, ask questions, and talk. The forum lives entirely inside Geminispace — no web interface, no accounts tied to this site. Open it in your Gemini client and register with a client certificate to post. Reading is open to anyone.
