Nginx was there like 15 years ago and it feels it has been stuck there with no progress ever since. No metrics, no ACME certs... I moved to Traefik and never looked back.
Agreed. Feel like the AI era has removed a lot of the “don’t roll your own” instincts people had.
Just because you can doesn’t mean you should. There is a lot to be said for battle tested.
