I got two Feedback Rakk stands. It has a swing arm that push the bike into. There are a few knock-offs on Amazon. Or vertical arm style. You can also get simple floor racks.
Have seen people post DIY stands in last month: wood and PVC.
You shouldn't store a bike with hydro brakes upside down, as any air trapped in the reservoir can potentially migrate up the line, but it takes a while for that to happen. I generally work on my bikes upside down, simply because that's how I worked on them as a kid and I'm more comfortable doing it that way. I've had my MTB upside down for hours at a time, never had any negative effects.
Turning it upside down a few minutes before every few rides can help keep the foam seals in the suspension fork wet with oil (depending on the fork of course).
I don't really think bikes are heavy enough to put wheels out of true by hanging them if you use the bike regularly. It's not like you hang the bike by the same exact spot every time. I use a feedback sports rack to store my bikes, simply back them into it and they stay upright.
I use this in a garage with tight space. Works well enough for me. You might want some that stack vertically like this if you're really tight on space. You may be able to come up with a 3d printable design of a rack like this
You can get all the pvc and glue for about $11, sand for $4, depending on where you shop.
Cool thing about this is that it grips the tire from the top and bottom making it more stable compared to the wide stand you are showing for 5-10 bucks more.
The only other stand I liked was this one for $38.50. Or the Pro 29er which I own but did not fit my wheel.

This is the one I have. It's sturdy, easy to use, and holds the bike securely.
DIY is cool and all, but this is a truly awesome rack, cheap, and looks good enough to use in my on-campus office. (And it fits big MTB tires! Strong enough to hold up a bike upright with a single loaded pannier, too.)
