Freenginx: Core Nginx developer announces fork

It's not that scary. If a project everyone depends on is broken and unmaintained, someone else will manufacture a replacement fairly quickly and people will vote with their feet.

NGINX is the de facto standard today, but I can remember running servers off apache when I began professionally programming. I remember writing basic cross-broweser spas with script.aculous, and prototypejs in 2005, before bundlers and react and node.

Everything gets gradually replaced, eventually.

I still deploy Apache httpd, because that’s what I know best, and it works.

You can also probably host without a reverse proxy. Also there are alternatives like Caddy. IIS!! And I imaging the big cloud would swoop in and help since their expensive CDNs and gateways will rely on it, or maybe Kubernetes maintainers, since most likely they use it.
