Varish was very well done. It's disappointing that with HTTPS-first nowadays there is very little oppourtunity to make good use of local web caches of web content across browsers / clients. Caches would have been a godsend back in the 1990s when we had to use shared dialup to connect to the internet while using NetScape in a classroom full of computers.

Yeah. But it sees a lot of reverse proxy use, and projects like IPFS are exploring the possibilities of securely-locally-cacheable data.
