I remember one of the early "selling points" of nginx was it didn't traverse the directory tree for a .htaccess file to dynamically load config from, for each request, when that was specifically a "selling point" of Apache, which is very useful for shared hosting contexts when users don't have access to change the webserver config.
- NorwegianDude 5y agoConsidering that that's something you can choose to do with apache isn't a selling point for nginx. It's an optional feature nginx lacks. But yeah, there was a lot of weird and misinformed reasons for why people recommended others to use nginx no matter what the use case was.
