Re: "Do you use a reverse proxy?"
was seriously considering setting one up, but couldn't remember my home router password to punch a DMZ port. Forgot about it until now. Guess I don't need it that much.

Idem. I use nginx as reverse proxy. The Geminispace is not a local network.

Do you use a reverse proxy? — Using a reverse proxy is kinda the default for the "normal" web, but what about gemini? on one hand, you probably don't need it right now with the current community size (and how nice people seem to behave). on the other hand, I don't want to blindly trust the internet to not be mean to server infrastructure and I'm not sure if every gemini server out there has protection mechanisms like basic rate-limiting.
