I’m an old school nginx pro. So I keep using nginx for reverse proxies because it’s what I know. What does caddy have to offer (or traefik is anyone wants to jump in)? Are they just optimized for this function and more modern?
What they’re asking is why Traefik/Caddy and not nginx? Do they offer anything that nginx doesn’t? Nginx is pretty tried and true and honestly, in this space, I personally prefer tried and true over new and shiney unless new and shiney offers something I need that old faithful doesn’t.
To be fair, I was an Apache hold out for a looong time until I accepted my lord and savior nginx into my heart.
