Cast
gollark: Also, you need a few extra settings for high-security TLS configuration.
gollark: Yes, but you need an external program to handle HTTPS cert autorenewal.
gollark: Eh, I only have a few hundred lines of caddy config.
gollark: Its main feature is (was) just that it is (was) easy to use. But they made the config weirder and more complex in v2 and convoluted the architecture a lot, so I went back to nginx, which is harder but less so and also maybe faster.
gollark: Somewhat, yes.
