I've recently been wondering if Lemmy should switch out NGINX for Caddy, while I hadn't had experience with Caddy it looks like a great & fast alternative, What do you all think?

EDIT: I meant beehaw not Lemmy as a whole

I am surprised you're getting dropped requests. What do the logs say?

I mean not on my personal server, my personal server keeps dying all the time and I got tired of it. I haven't looked into the logs. But I meant with the recent influx of reddit users, I saw beehaw and lemmy.ml also have 500 errors.

Right. If you're getting a 500 (I suspect 502 - bad gateway) you're not dropping requests. That is lemmy itself crapping its pants. Nginx simply tells you the target behind it is doing something wrong. Happens when the lemmy software get overwhelmed.

Oh, sorry I apologize I didn't know it was lemmy going dead.
