Shameless plug: Caddy does a great job here. Automatic HTTPS, written in Go so memory safety bugs are not a concern, has a solid file_server module.

+1 to Caddy. Just tried it recently and I was very happy to forget all the nginx jargon the next moment.
Isn't everything forced to https now
Browsers try to navigate you to HTTPS but no, http the protocol is still working as it always has. Both nginx and Apache will require configuration to serve HTTPS.

You might still use HTTP on an internal network in a DMZ or other trusted network.

Good to know
No.

Some things were never meant to be, like downloading CRLs over HTTPS.

Im using caddy, it's great!
