I see so many posts and people who run NGINX as their reverse proxy. Why though? There’s HAProxy and Apache, with Caddy being a simpler option.
If you’re starting from scratch, why did you pick/are you picking NGINX over the others?
This is it for me. I used to use caddy a few years ago because writing config files was a breeze. Now I “use” nginx because I can define everything in a few lines of nix and it’s configured automagically for me.
