These days, absolutely... I usually use Caddy for reverse proxy chores and it's been a great option to deal with. Traefic hasn't been bad either.

Let's encrypt and ACME hasn't always been available. Lots of companies also use appliances for the reverse proxy/Ingress.

If they don't support ACME, it's actually quite the chore to do - at least it was the last time I had to before acme was a thing (which is admittedly over 10 yrs ago)
