gollark: It turned out it didn't, and caddy v2 has annoying things, so nginx it is.

gollark: Well, caddy v1 was apparently "deprecated" - there were annoying warnings about this on the site before there was even a non-release-candidate v2 - and I had an issue, so I thought "hmm yes maybe a newer webserver would fix this".

gollark: I actually migrated from caddy v1 to caddy v2 yesterday, and now I'm going back to nginx after... a few years?

gollark: I imagine it was sort of valid enough that nginx *logged* it.

gollark: Basically.
