Reverse proxy recommendation tier list for self-hosters:
S tier: Caddy (automatic HTTPS, simple config)
A tier: Traefik (Docker-native, label-based routing)
A tier: Nginx Proxy Manager (GUI-based, beginner-friendly)
B tier: Nginx (powerful but manual config)
C tier: HAProxy (enterprise-grade, complex config)
Caddy is the right choice for 80% of self-hosters. 3 lines of config for a fully working reverse proxy with automatic SSL.
