I’ve recently been wondering if Lemmy should switch out NGINX for Caddy, while I hadn’t had experience with Caddy it looks like a great & fast alternative, What do you all think?

EDIT: I meant beehaw not Lemmy as a whole

    1. there are hidden configs
    2. this adds up quickly for more complex scenarios
    3. Yeah, fair enough it is really a preference thing and caddy supports it

      The hidden configs are boilerplate which are easily imported for any applicable service. A set-once set of files isn’t what I would count towards being verbose. 90% of my services use the exact same format.

      If a certain service is complicated and needs more config in nginx, it’s going to be the same for caddy.

        I don’t know, I prefer it to be easier to set up my proxy especially when it comes to configs, each to their own I guess.
