Comment on Anyone using 6-day certs yet?
dan@upvote.au 19 hours agoI’m just using regular Nginx, which I’ve been using for 20 years. What does Nginx Proxy Manager or npmplus do better?
I’ve been meaning to try Angie too, which is a fork of Nginx.

Not really sure they do anything “better”, it’s mainly for convenience. It’s an all-in-one solution with a nice UI and sane defaults. That helps me have a somewhat consistent setup across all my hosted services. If you’re happy with managing Nginx directly, then you probably have no reason to use these.

Makes sense! I didn’t realise it has a UI.
I’ve got a bunch of snippets in
/etc/nginx/snippets/, so for example I just need to addinclude snippets/proxy.confto a server block to add most of the configuration needed for a reverse proxy. I’ve been using Nginx for long enough that I just write the rest of the server block by hand.
