gollark: What?
gollark: You know, my server ran on a RPi for ages. It was always nginx-based, though.
gollark: https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/likeapache-htaccess/
gollark: `.htaccess` is, of course, not great.
gollark: Probably in the folder which apache serves files from.
