I wish NGINX marketed and documented their NGINX Unit server more. They go their lunch completely eaten by Caddy and the other kubernetes native Golang app servers and reverse proxies.

That is true at a certain scale, but there is also a reason why large organizations like Cloudflare ran nginx on their edge over any other product.
