I have been self-hosting for a while now with Traefik. It works, but I'd like to give Nginx Proxy Manager a try, it seems easier to manage stuff not in docker.

Edit: btw I'm going to try this out on my RPI, not my hetzner vps, so no risk of breaking anything

I use the caddy plugin in opnsense. Used nginx proxy manager from Proxmox helper scripts before that, which was relatively easy and helped me understand the whole proxy thing. Moved to caddy on opnsense a few months ago, just because, and have had no good reason to change yet.

I recently switched a bunch of nginx configs to the opnsense Caddy plugin. It is easy to configure, but in my opinion it lacks the ability to change settings beyond the basics. It isn't helpful either that the plugin developer fails to recognize any other use case than the basics. It disqualifies the plugin for everyone with a little bit more complex setups.
