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 previously used NPM, it was easy to use and simple, but more robust stuff had to be done in the config area. I ended up having to edit configs more often than not in the end, so I switched to Traefik so now I just drop some extra blocks of text directly in my compose files and it just handles it.
I guess once I get Traefik to work it might just click (and I can move my configs into the future). I just wish Traefik had at least a config generator UI similar to NPM. I just want "this IP on this port with this certificate = https://url.tld, if you get what I mean

Traefik has a GUI you can installed. I use Cloudflare ZT
GUI that just tells you how it is configured, you can’t configure anything there
Vote for NPM
I vote for Caddy anyway
