I used NPM, It was pretty solid
Then I changed headspace and now I run SearXNG through cloudflare, and tailscale everything that doesn't need to be public.
NPM was the first one that worked for me. I used a YouTube tutorial. I tried Nginx and Caddy, but couldn't figure them out. For context, I try to run anything I can out of Docker, which adds some complexity I think. I must not have been doing the templates correctly or something.
I plan on trying to go for Nginx or Caddy later, but right now NPM works wonders for my use case.
I really like Zoraxy. Similar to NPM but it's its own thing and I like it a lot more
I know how to use raw nginx/Caddy/traefik to do it, but I find the WebUI and all the extra features Zoraxy has to be very convenient and easy to use.
I highly recommend npm. It's also the only one I've used, so please keep that in mind.
I like Zoraxy it has a lot of features, like Zerotier integration, status monitoring etc and a clean UI
Runs fine for my needs and fully replaced NPM for me 😊
You can run it in docker or as a single binary directly
This the main reason I switched from traefik, I can have certificates on all my internal stuff and not just on my docker host. I personally love NPM but maybe I'll give NPMPlus a try, I have never heard of it.
I use and love nginx.
Maybe a bit more old fashioned than more modern solutions, but steady solid and versatile. I use it as reverse proxy ad well as proxy for php stuff and more.
I use Synology integrated reverse proxy, stupidly simple and always works for me (only if IPv6 doesn't fuck up itself, I can't fallback to IPv4 because that is CGNATED), if I am missing features that other options have I would like to know :)
having tried many in past, i always go back to haproxy. it has everything required as proxy and load balancer while also being very efficient.
I had a poor experience with NPM which turned me to SWAG, it worked, but was a tad slow. Moved to Traefik and haven’t looked back.
