Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • It’s a hard case not rocket science the Apache should be fine lol
  • Also block search engines by adding a password via .htaccess if you're on Apache - that's more effective than just telling bots not to index.
  • NGINX/Apache are both open source and used worldwide by many critical systems. For that reason alone i would use them.

Cons

  • And they ain't hard; but I would suggest nginx over apache if you have to start learning one.
  • The auditors scraped the Apache version banner, saw it wasn't the latest bleeding-edge number from the Apache website, and flagged it.
  • My problem with OpenSSL (and Apache) CVE's when other vendors bundle it into their offering and then take their sweet time updating their software.
  • The only thing I've done as the years have gone by is switch from Apache to Nginx.
  • It seems that Apache or QShave blades are the ones you're looking for, but I'm not sure.

Parent context: Mac hardware running a hypervisor is the only authorized way to run macOS virtual machines. That's almost certainly the reason you have Macs running ESXi. Reply: I know that, but what they are running on those systems (Apache) didn't require MacOS to begin with.

Small instance droplet, install sqlLite and run the app and use NGINX or Apache.
