Not really self watering but I have mine in a pot of sphagnum moss with drainage holes and I leave it in a take-out cup filled with distilled water at all times. I just got the plant a couple months ago but it seems happy and is giving my new pitchers

unfortunately won’t work for me with where I plan to put them in my house were they can get enough light I’m hoping to keep them hanging however, your comment does give me hope about my Venus fly trap that I plan to set up similarly to how you described!
