I played with Caddy a lot in the v1 days and again recently with v2.1. I ended up not sticking with it since there's things I do with nginx that aren't easy to do with Caddy if you don't have extensive Go knowledge. I am tempted to give it an honest go again, though, and see what I/it can do.
As for Caddy advantages, I think it's really just about having a super easy to manage JSON or Caddyfile. In migrating a few of my nginx configs to Caddyfile, I was able to reduce line counts from dozens to 2-3. That's pretty impressive, tbh.
If you've been using nginx forever and have no issues with it...I don't see any valid reasons to move to Caddy.
Yeah, spam calls have gotten out of hand in the last year or two...really not sure what happened. I try and report as many as I can since I'm in the Do Not Call Registry...I am but one man, though.
If you're hosting with GoDaddy, I would highly recommend switching to pretty much any other provider on the planet other than 1and1. GoDaddy is notorious for screwing over users for basically as long as they've been around.
On the other side: I know a few games, like TLoU, have tried to go the "movie-esque" route, with mixed success. TLoU was quite successful, but I don't think there have been too many other video games that have done well with the "movie-like" approach.
I think you're right that video games often sacrifice storytelling for gameplay, which I definitely don't mind.
