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- stick with Nginx Proxy Manager which I know well (is it really that insecure or outdated?)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)
Just use Nginx… It isn’t that difficult, after all.
Or try any one of the “simplified” other proxies out there. I never seen the need for NPM anyway, as it just obfuscate nginx configuration stuff from your eyes.
