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 stick with Nginx Proxy Manager which I know well (is it really that insecure or outdated?)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)

    If you are using docker have you looked at Traefik to act as your reverse proxy to replace nginx proxy manager?

      To be honest I forgot about it. I tried it two years ago when setting up my lab but struggled compared to NPM. Nowadays it seems like all the talk I used to hear about it is now about caddy.

        Even back then caddy was being talked about. I don’t use caddy because, at least back then, it was only free for non commercial use (unless you compile it yourself).

        I’ve been using Traefik for even longer though and haven’t ran into any major issues. Definitely recommend it.
