Demographics
gollark: caddy is a newer and trendier one which does nice stuff like HTTPS without having to use an external program like certbot, but in my opinion v2 made configuring it quite annoying.
gollark: I'd recommend nginx for reverse-proxying, it has reasonably non-annoying configuration and is very fast.
gollark: Reverse proxies are mostly a HTTP thing. You can probably get away with just running the other stuff on multiple ports.
gollark: You can also have that one reverse proxy server do all the HTTPS, which is mildly convenient.
gollark: So just set up the router thing to only send traffic to the reverse proxy thing, and configure that properly.

Notes
  1. Civil parishes served a variety of government functions until 1966, when the new Municipalities Act stripped them of their responsibilities; they continue to provide convenient boundaries for government uses, especially electoral districts and local service districts. Statistics Canada uses civil parishes as census subdivisions for all parts of the province that are not within municipalities and similar entities.
