There have been a few Reddit, Lemmy and Youtube posts over the past week or so about Nginx Proxy Manager and their shortfalls, mostly towards CVEs and other security issues.

The problem is that unlike Traefik, NGINX Proxy Manager is actually easy to use. And before you recommend Caddy, that also has no GUI.

What do you use, if you have stuff exposed to the outside?

I use a plain nginx and certbot. Was trying to use traefik, but it lacked some capabilities for serving static content and some specific functions…

I however use traefik in a docker swarm as an ingress and its quite good at that position if you dont need special capabilities like running scripts and serving partially static stuff.
