i actually think NPM is more confusing. 1: there are practically always already finished Files for Caddy V2. Most of the times directly in the Repo of the Project. A lot of Devs use Caddy themselves. 2: NPM exposes a lot of Options additionally. This can confuse newcomers. With Caddy, all these extra options are invisible. you just write and see "reverse_proxy jellyfin" and that's it.
Completely agree. I haven't used NPM since I started self hosting a few years ago, but I was never able to get it to work right. I ended up using apache2 as it was pretty well documented everywhere. Moved to caddy v1 when I found it as the config is so easy to write and understand. Moved to v2 when it was released and had no issues. Their forum is incredibly helpful if you run into any issues. At this point its a "relatively" mature platform and most projects I've setup have an example config (usually just 1 or 2 lines because that's all you need).
