Time for me to slowly start looking for an alternative.

There was a time when I wanted to move away from it and was eyeing HAProxy, but the lack of the ability to serve static files didn't convince me. Then there was Traefik, but I never looked too much into it, because Nginx is working just fine for me.

My biggest hope was Cloudflare's Rust-based Pingora pre-announcement, which was then never published as Open Source.

Now that I googled for the Pingora name I found Oxy, which might be Pingora? Googling for this yields

> Although Pingora, another proxy server developed by us in Rust, shares some similarities with Oxy, it was intentionally designed as a separate proxy server with a different objective.

Any non-Apache recommendations? It should be able to serve static files.
