Finally! I haven’t had to maintain servers in the last few years, but I had to when the switch to ‘nginx Pro’ happened and all of a sudden basic documentation was buried in the who-knows-where.

Fingers crossed the team behind the Angie fork join forces and work on Freenginx or vice versa. I doubt they’ll be able to keep the name since Nginx won’t be happy how close the names are.

Joke’s on them. As a homelab noob, I just run whatever the Docker containers provide. I will not dive into a nerd cave to adjust to the latest and greatest (fad).

Tell me you didn’t read the article, without telling me you didn’t read the article.

How concerned should I be?
What are the unspecified policies the developer claims that the company has failed to uphold? Who is this particular developer, and how much should I trust them? (I don’t follow nginx development at all.)
I celebrate the fact that open source licenses exist specifically to allow people to make a fork like this when they have disagreements! But I don’t know enough about this particular case to decide how it should affect my own plans.

As far as I understand from the discussions about the topic, Maxim Dounin was one of the few core developers of nginx. Looks like Wikipedia has already been updated.

I read something about this the other day, but I’m having trouble wrapping my head around it.

This seems to have the best discussion I’ve found:
