Unless you want to make it possible for people to read your dotfiles or
something, a simple solution would to to encourage people to create
~/Public, make that world-readable, and then put everything they want
others to be able to access in that directory or subdirectories. Or is
this too simple a solution to work?
The problem with this is that people can't get to your Public
subdirectory unless your homedir is readable. And if your homedir is
readable, then other newly created subdirectories will inherit this
readability.
