The simple web-stack.

The OpenBSD httpd(8) is my obvious choice. It's small, easy to configure and designed from the ground up to use privilege separation. It does however lack a way to add custom HTTP-headers.

DoH disabled by default in Firefox.

While encrypting DNS might be a good thing, sending all DNS traffic to Cloudflare by default is not a good idea. Applications should respect OS configured settings. https://undeadly.org/cgi?action=article;sid=20190911113856

DoH, disabled by default, is...
