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:

  1. stick with Nginx Proxy Manager which I know well (is it really that insecure or outdated?)
  2. switch to NPM Plus (assuming this is the easiest)
  3. switch to Caddy (seems to be there most recommended but will be a learning curve for me)
  4. Try out Nginx (seems like a massive learning curve so I’m very reluctant)

    IMO the learning curve for caddy is almost non existent, and just about anything you might want to selfhost almost certainly has a quick simple caddy configuration you can copy paste with just updating the relevant domain. Personally learning curve for caddy was probably way lower than figuring out the edge cases of apache that I was using before
