What a surprise. Here we go again.
The best, most expandable 3d printer driver, klipper,
uses nginx to build its control interface
It doesn't matter what niche activities you (or I) engage in on niche
hardware that happen to use nginx for reasons you don't know of but
assume are "probably" vital. OP has a working apache2 that they are
familiar with. If they told me they had a working nginx they are
familiar with I'd have told them to stick with that.
I am answering based on OP's stated situation. You are answering
based on your personal circumstances and still making a big leap of
reasoning.
apache2 was probably tested and found wanting.
Fact that it's working for OP's use case trumps your vague
"probably". If OP had come here with a problem we'd solve it, and
that could involve switching to something else. But they didn't.
Neither of us has any knowledge of how many coding hours went into
making apach2 work for the OP, the OP didn't indicate.
It doesn't seem that OP is doing anything like that and if they were
it would be down to them to state they have an issue with
constrained resources. They did not, so your advice is bizarre at
best.
It also illustrates that this stuff isn't restricted to "genuine rpi"
stuff to run on, there are dozens of other clones that can do this quite
nicely. Some of them quite a bit faster than the rpi's with their usb2
speed limits. That is one of the reasons I chose the bpi-m5, all 4 usb
ports are usb3.
That spreading of "it works for me" info seems like a proper function of
a "community" list, Andy.
