Caddy vs. Nginx

@JaredBusch said in Caddy vs. Nginx:
You have to compile yourself if you want to use commercially.
This is not something I will ever want to use because of that.
Yeah that's kinda lame, but not a deal breaker. Nginx has to be compiled for more advanced use cases like WAF or certain HAProxy features.
It's a bit of a bitch, but once you script it. It isn't too bad to do upgrades going forward.

Yes, I want various security headers set, etc.
Caddy gets an A out of the box on ssllabs.com
But they wouldn't see it, right? Because you'd still have CloudFlare in front of it. So while it gets an A, what does that matter?

A distro, or someone you know, can make open releases of it, though. It's Apache 2 license, so they can't make binaries personal only. They can make their own download personal only, I guess, but you could make an identical binary that is commercial. On the weird world of licensing. Really just makes them asshats if they really do that.

I'm not using CF as a reserve proxy or origin certificates.

Why? It adds a lot of performance and security. Regardless, whoever you use as your RP should be handling this.

What does anything here have to do with anything? You said that their product was certified, by them. Telling us who "them" is is neither here nor there. The point that their validation is worthless remains unaddressed.

that doesn't seem to be a limitation anymore. I didn't see it on their documentation.
Also I didn't realize Arden Labs made this. That's pretty cool.
