That's exactly the reason why it proposed to allow setting NIP-05 aliases by a DNS record (TXT):
https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/issues/146
No webserver, no HTTPS certificate, no maintenance.
It was discarded right now as it complicates the protocol and it's no implemented anywhere.
Let's hope it can get traction and support.
