   Never dabbled with nginx much, but I’m changing around some stuff and might switch to it, for 2 reasons - get away from the appropriation of “Apache” and to learn something new.

     @N3VEM I'm a big fan of nginx for serving static files with no CGI. It just works out of the box and doesn't need a bunch of performance tuning like Apache does

     @kwf @N3VEM You might want to check out Litespeed - I've moved my Wordpress site over to it from nginx and it is ridiculously fast. Combining it with quic.cloud for CDN its pretty remarkable; getting GTmetrix scores like this. I've got a few friends on a basic Ubuntu 22.04 Vultr server and it's getting a .721ms page load or better for flat HTML static file.

     @gecko I suppose it could. Mastodon is just a server block inside an Nginx /available file, but it's all the extra stuff that goes with it that would be beyond my paygrade to do in Litespeed.

     A search for anyone doing that shows....nothing.

     @jimcarroll
     Could this work for / benefit a self-hosted mastodon instance?
