Yeah, this precisely. I don’t expect players with Barbarians that have 20 strength to bench 400 lbs, so it’s fine if players aren’t as suave as their Bard, unless they want to lean into roleplay dialogue. It’s usually more than enough for them to say, “I try to charm the blacksmith by complimenting how nice a shop they have” or something like that and let the dice determine how effective they actually are at that.

Nginx is a lot less painful if you use Nginx Proxy Manager. You get a nice GUI and can easily get SSL certificates with Let’s Encrypt, including wildcard certs. I’m running it in front of a docker swarm and 3 other servers, and in most cases, it takes me about 30 seconds to add a new proxy host and set it up with https using my *.domain.com wildcard cert. I also use it with Authentik as a forward proxy auth for SSO (since many containers out there don’t have the best security).
