Are there hosted solutions or public hosts for Gopher servers? Is self hosting the only option these days?

I have no need for a Gopher server but I'm curious.

@amoroso but what's the use for Gopher today, apart from a nostalgic feeling?

@amoroso Any of the tildes (I do exist on tilde.town, but SDF and lots of others) will have a public_gopher in home dir, you can just put a gophermap file in.

But, both motsognir & gophernicus are easy to run if you have your own server.

@amoroso Synchronet BBS has a gopher server module, but I’ve never used it.

@amoroso You can join SDF or one of the tildes. Many pubnixes give you gopher and/or gemini hosting.
