I like traefik hot reload (among other things). Want to hide a service (the proxied app), a new route (a router in traefik terminology), a middleware (basic auth, https redirection, headers manipulation) ? Just drop the file and it gets automatically picked up, no need to reload traefik or that vhost.

Truth is: I don't like nginx syntax and traefik is/was shiny :]. I went in for the LE renewal and containers, I stayed for the configuration style.

It’s not that nice in practice. Traefik until 3.0 (which was released just a few days ago) wasn’t been able to reload TLS certificates under some circumstances: https://github.com/traefik/traefik/pull/9993

Built-in ACME support doesn’t work for me, so I still have some `systemctl restart traefik` hacks here and there.
