To clarify, Caddy absolutely can deal "web scale" as proven by companies like Fathom, Stripe, and many others. (The Go standard library powers many of Google's, Cloudflare's, and Netflix's infrastructure, and Caddy

What do you mean by "growth" being a problem? (If you're talking about scale, we have companies with tens of thousands of sites behind their Caddy instances.) > anything advanced doesn't work, Can you be more specific

To clarify, the Caddy source code has always been Apache 2.0 licensed, all the way back to 2014-2015.

What's keeping you from using Caddy in production? We designed it for that too :D PS. Have you seen Caddy's on-line config API? https://caddyserver.com/docs/api

Yeah. That was also roughly the conclusion of my masters thesis: https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/7403/ ("After HTTPS: Indicating Risk Instead of Security") -- we examined the flaws of current browser

That's different than power generation. If the reservoir goes dry, the power plant can't generate energy. That video is about drinking and irrigation water for communities.

I see something about using Caddy in the repo. Nice! That's a great solution for custom domain TLS.

Caddy doesn't require an email address for ZeroSSL (but we still strongly recommend that for troubleshooting sake).

Worked on updating and improving Caddy's documentation. We're releasing v2.5.2 today or tomorrow!

Sure, you can do this with nginx and dynamic DNS if you really want to, but Caddy does it all for you, with automatic HTTPS, and runs natively on Android (or in Termux): https://caddy.community/t/running-caddy-2-on-an

Very cool. Some great ideas here as I build a visualizer for Timeliner [0] (effectively its successor, Timelinize [1]) in my spare time! Did you build the timeline UI yourself? Can it be used as a library? [0]: https://github.com

Great to hear! Hope it serves you well.

We did this with Caddy a couple years ago. Best decision the project ever made.

Still down here in western US. Some product pages don't even show that error; they're just empty.

Glad your experience has been good, thanks for the reinforcement!

Re 3: What you really need is Caddy [0] with this dynamic DNS module: https://github.com/mholt/caddy-dynamicdns Caddy has state-of-the-art certificate automation and TLS support, and with that module, it automatically

I had to stop using plus-addressing (me+brand@gmail.com) because of broken email address parsers/validators. If I was on the phone with a support agent, I would give them my plus-address and their system would reject it and they'd

You can match hostnames with trailing dots in Caddy, too (and have been able to for years).

> If I don't know anything about Caddy I don't even know if the `header` lines are matching that header or adding that header. The '@' sign is pretty ubiquitous these days to mean "at" or "toward".

You're not being a productive member of the community. You only complain about Caddy, instead of giving solid technical arguments for your case. We have presented ample evidence, experience, and technical reasoning to support our argum

> Automatic ACME is not a feature in nginx right? Correct. You need separate, less reliable tooling to use ACME with nginx.

You don't even need a config file for that! $ caddy reverse-proxy --from sub.domain.com --to localhost:8080 Done :)

No. The proxy is almost never the bottleneck.

What are your performance requirements? Go is fast enough for Google. It's too slow for you?

Let's Encrypt themselves has called Caddy the "gold standard" of certificate automation. (Not certbot.)
