I'm always a bit bothered by them saying they are the "only" web server that can do this. First you can also just configure it in a way where it will not use HTTPS (e.g. if you provide an IP:port instead of a hostname). And if you do require specific configuration to enable HTTPS and automatically get certificates via ACME, then lots of other web servers can do this too. Even my own web server can do it: https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp (see https://github.com/pfirsich/htcpp/blob/main/configs/acme.jom... for an admittedly much more complicated config).
If you want a slightly heavier but more robust solution, caddy-docker-proxy[0] is a plugin that listens to the Docker socket and automatically updates the Caddy configuration based on Docker labels you add to containers.
I.e. it makes Caddy act a bit more like Traefik. Most of the time, you'll just add the label `caddy.reverse_proxy={{upstreams http 8080}}` to your containers and the plugin will regenerate Caddy's configuration whenever the container is modified.

If DNS-01 is not an option or to complicated, this saves you from exposing a host to the internet for no good reason.

The developer's annoying response is "it doesnt improve privacy or security, so we won't give you the option to remove it".
