I’m currently using NPM and upgrading to a new VPS for my business. I have a public website and am going to host a few more for friends, plus a few other services. Everything is on docker for ease. I use Cloudflare for DNS so would prefer using a DNS challenge. I will change this at some point but not yet ready to!
Should I:
- stick with Nginx Proxy Manager which I know well (is it really that insecure or outdated?)
- switch to NPM Plus (assuming this is the easiest)
- switch to Caddy (seems to be there most recommended but will be a learning curve for me)
- Try out Nginx (seems like a massive learning curve so I’m very reluctant)
I used to use npm. If you know it and you’re happy, use it.
It took me 3 times until I understood and got caddy installed. First, I tried using it via podman and failed. In the end I just installef it via dnf and it worked without any problems. Learning a caddy file is easy. I’ll never look back. It’s so nice and easy. Easier than npm but no gui but that’s not needed
