A lot of positivity in this thread. I don't have anything bad to say about Caddy, but the only advantage I'm hearing over Nginx is easier cert setup. If you're struggling with that, I can see how that's a benefit.
I configured my kubernetes cluster to automatically create and renew certs a few years ago. It's all done through Ingress now. I just point my Nginx load balancer to my new domain and it figures it out.
I don't often need local https but when I do I also need outside access so Stripe or whatever can ping my dev server (testing webhooks). For that I have a server running Nginx which I use to proxy back to localhost, I just have to run 1 command to temporarily expose my machine under a fixed domain.
Works for me. Maybe not everyone but I'll keep doing this since I don't have any reason to switch
