defeats the purpose? Also, like I mentioned, I used it ages ago…binary packages when I was using it weren’t very common. I see they “went binary” a few years back… but then, why bother with Gentoo?

I used Gentoo for ages… it was the only distro I’d consider for my personal projects. Eventually, the amount of time it took to compile packages wore me out and I switched to fedora. Maybe I’m just old but watching gcc fly by for hours on end to compile X11 was neat but is not how I want to spend my Saturday anymore. Maybe I’ll build out a VM for old times sake…

What they’re asking is why Traefik/Caddy and not nginx? Do they offer anything that nginx doesn’t? Nginx is pretty tried and true and honestly, in this space, I personally prefer tried and true over new and shiney unless new and shiney offers something I need that old faithful doesn’t.

To be fair, I was an Apache hold out for a looong time until I accepted my lord and savior nginx into my heart.

Came here to say this. We have these everywhere in the house. They’re super easy to open (by adults) and should come off when the kiddos are older without too much fuss.
