For concrete comparison, nginx backs something like 40% of the top 10k websites. Caddy is a fraction of a percent.

    Openresty is basically Nginx + Lua. I did some POCs on it back in the day, honestly surprised it's still around. It wasn't bad, just seemed like a product with a very small niche.

      If I'm not mistaken, the biggest user of openresty is the Kubernetes community-maintained nginx ingress controller [1]. [1]: https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx I took pains to say "community-maintained" because there's also an official nginx ingress controller from F5 (current corporate owner of nginx).

    openresty and cloudflare are both nginx forks
