Nice manual.
The first I saw with the destinction between root- and subfolder-installations

Nice manual. Thx.

I have OC 8 running on nginx. The only differences I’ve recognized are some steps to deal with some errors/warnings in the admin section, e.g.: The “Strict-Transport-Security” HTTP header is not configured to least “15768000” seconds. For enhanced security we recommend enabling HSTS as described in our security tips.

would also like to see documentation for running it on a directadmin (or cpanel) server with nginx.
for example I run my own dedicated server for a few domains and have directadmin installed to make it easier to admin the domains.
I have to run httpd (apache) as I cannot find a way to make any location block rules work for owncloud/nextcloud.

This question is still hot imho.

Trend

Nginx is the leading web servers supporting some the the more modern protocols, which is probably one of the reasons why people start using it. 76.8% of all sites supporting HTTP/2 use Nginx, while only 2.3% of those sites rely on Apache.

This is not really surprising, considering that the HTTP/2 module of Apache is still classified as “experimental”. Similarly, 63.3% of all sites that support IPv6 run on Nginx, almost three times as much as Apache.

continue here : Nginx reaches 33.3% web server market share while Apache falls below 50%

So please, consider to officialy support a nginx distro.
