Hello, my fellow self-hosters! So I've been using Nginx for a bit now and I'm super used to making configuration files by hand. Even made a few scripts to make it easier.

But I was looking at Nginx Proxy Manager and man... it looks so much more convenient to use. Fill in a few text boxes and life is good it seems.

I want to ask you folks who have used both, what are some of the drawbacks of Nginx Proxy Manager?

I'm hosting Pterodactyl which serves static files, is that kind of configuration much of a hassle when using NPM compared to native Nginx?

One important note would be that I'd be hosting it via Docker; but I imagine this doesn't matter too much really. Would appreciate some feedback on this regard.
