Time for me to slowly start looking for an alternative.
There was a time when I wanted to move away from it and was eyeing HAProxy, but the lack of the ability to serve static files didn't convince me. Then there was Traefik, but I never looked too much into it, because Nginx is working just fine for me.
My biggest hope was Cloudflare's Rust-based Pingora pre-announcement, which was then never published as Open Source.
Now that I googled for the Pingora name I found Oxy, which might be Pingora? Googling for this yields
> Although Pingora, another proxy server developed by us in Rust, shares some similarities with Oxy, it was intentionally designed as a separate proxy server with a different objective.
Any non-Apache recommendations? It should be able to serve static files.
I'm going to third the suggestions for caddy, I've replaced nginx as a reverse proxy in a couple places with caddy and it's been so much easier to maintain.
I think people are seeing this as a very generic "big bad globocorp destroying OSS community", and not moving past the headlines.
I'm with you, this seems like a foolish thing to decide to fork the project over. Probably there is other conflict brewing, and this was just a convenient opportunity.
Did I miss something regarding that Maxim didn't want CVEs and disclosures? I was not aware of this. And F5 are the ones wanting to add the CVEs (as happened in the announcement which was released an hour earlier)?
I could have sworn that I've read about Nginx CVEs in the past.
