Caddy cannot be found in the default repositories of Debian or RHEL. This raises the question of why one would use such a server. Personally, I am hesitant to download a random pre-built executable from Github, even if it is open source. I

Yes, that is true. ChatGPT refuses to work with VPN and regularly checks for your IP using Cloudflare. Most of these new AI-driven startups are using Cloudflare. It is funny that startups collect/scrap data from all over the web but do
