It's been a while since I've seen Caddy here and I do remember all the controversy over the licensing. It is difficult to make an open source project and find a way to monetize/live off of it and there's always been that push/pull with projects like this, Redis, and others.

Back during that mess, I settled on haproxy+certbot+nginx in containers to setup my personal sites, but something like Caddy can greatly simplify that kind of stack.

This is pretty cool news and I hope this project continues to develop. How have they solved their funding problems? Does this have to do with the comment about Ardan Labs? For other people with FOSS projects who want to be able to work on this kind of stuff full time and not care about motorization, what options are there (other than Patreon/crowd/community type funding?)
