Only if they'd get the K8s ingress out of the WIP phase; I can't wait to possibly get rid of the cert-manager and ingress shenanigans you get with others.

Yup. I can’t wait for the day I can kill my caddy8s service.
The best thing about caddy is the fact you can reload config, add sites, routes, without ever having to shutdown. Writing a service to keep your orchestration platform and your ingress in sync is meh. K8s has the events, DNS service has the src mesh records, you just need a way to tell caddy to send it to your backend.
The feature should be done soon but they need to ensure it works across K8s flavors.

just send sighup to nginx and it will reload all the config—there's very few settings that require a restart

Sure, how, from the container? The host it’s on? Caddy exposes this as an api.

I think you can that with Nginx too, but the SWAG wrapper discourages it for some reason
