Calling it. Nginx won because it's configs are not xml. Apache should have learned by now.
XML should NEVER be used for configuration, not even if you're a Java or C# framework/middleware/application server.

#12I 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.
I've seen a lot of things going this way. There's benefits to having a hybrid configuration.

Apache configs are not XML files, they just happen to contain some square brackets.

Aren't Apache configs something unique that has pieces that look like XML but actually aren't?

#15This is your periodical friendly reminder that Igor Sysoev, principal author of nginx, is strongly pro-Putin and anti-Ukraine. You might get a taste of his views at his personal website, http://sysoev.ru (in Russian; use Google translate).
So, if such things matter to you, you might consider choosing some other web frontend.

Apache wasn't a competition, lighttpd was.

cPanel has no native support for nginx, if you've seen that it's been using a third party plugin. The second most popluar server controlpanel Plesk supports the configuraion you describes bt it's not enabled by default so I doubt will be affected the statistics.

Why? Nginx is not a political statement or software nor does it benefit it's author's causes in any way.
With that said, use caddy. Not for political reasons, just because it's awesome. https://caddyserver.com/

It's not xml!!!!
There's just opening and closing tags for a stanza. Look at a basic virtualhost config.

Caddy needs a decent networking library to compete with nginx, it cannot do that with crappy net package.
