gollark: There isn't really, because if you're just dealing with random TCP streams I don't think they have a similar thing to the HTTP Host header, which tells you what domain ~~you~~ the client wants to access.
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.
