For a product that has both community and enterprise versions, the owner should carefully choose what kind of features should be put into the enterprise version instead of the community one, imho.

If you choose to put some basic features like analytics queries or performance improvements to your paid plan, who can trust you that the community version can still be well-supported in the future?

If only half that time was spent making better tutorials on to use and how not to use it.

Even after using a couple of 'nginx generators', reading nginx docs, stack overflow, matrix install docs..

I eventually gave up and switched to caddy, which wasn't much better - and then ended up going back to nginx and using a default someone had posted a couple years back, which appeared to be not as secure as a more advanced config would be.. but at least the matrix client worked finally.

Learned a bit on the way, including how many docs things that config should be in one place and 'modern' nginx puts it somewhere else or something.

None of the config generators' worked for my setup, and it made getting (The VERY limited) support with matrix and element a real nightmare.

Surely chatgpt can create a new nginx like system that is simple like caddy and has install / comments / docs and examples more akin to wordpress or digital ocean's (similar like kinsta's) guides - and create an expert bot to diagnose - then we can throw away all the nginx documentaion please -

now if we can make postrgrs docs better or do the same kill and remake I feel that admin life would be better.

Apache 2 isn't bad, to my mind.

But Caddy does so much more out of the box. (Sometimes you need and enjoy it, sometimes you'd rather have a simpler tool.)

It’s the automatic https that gets you in.

At least they're not deploying another IIS server somewhere on the Internet.
