#2IIS will probably continue its nose dive as Microsoft pushes forward with .NET Core. I'm guessing people using .NET Core are more likely to use Kestrel + Nginx as a proxy.

#3Nginx is the web server equivalent of programming languages with fibers (in a good way.)
Is there anything that competes/a "next Nginx"?

Caddy is written in Go, and make use of native fibers/green threads/goroutines.

#5Netcraft's web server survey shows nginx at only 20%, and shows Apache dropping below 50% way back in August 2013. That's a big difference compared to w3techs and both sources should be taken with a pinch of salt.
It's the 3rd chart on: https://news.netcraft.com/archives/2017/03/24/march-2017-web...
Web server market share depends a lot on which sites you're looking at: are you checking the top X million sites or checking every site you can possibly find out about? And also how you're deduplicating them: is every blogspot blog counted separately?
Disclaimer: I work at Netcraft (but not on the survey).

#6I saw a recent version of cPanel that used ngnix as a proxy in front of Apache, with Apache on a high port. That might be responsible for a lot of the new ngnix seen out there.

Yeah, if I recall correctly there are a whole bunch of those "parked" domains that get included sometimes - so if you count based on domain and not just on IP you'll get vastly different results.

https://caddyserver.com/ Caddy is written in Go, and make use of native fibers/green threads/goroutines.
Also has builtin letsencrypt automation and generally easier configuration, so for small sites it might be a better option than nginx.

I think their docs says that unless you expect to scale to multiple x 10 000 requests / second then it caddy might be worth trying.
I went with it for the test networks at my job and liked it a lot.

#10Calling it. Nginx won because it's configs are not xml. Apache should have learned by now.
