Oh, I was talking about MPM Prefork. But in my experience two usecases make like 90% of all cases: "Provide these files hosted in that folder there" and "Terminate TLS, reverse-proxy the requests per http to that hostname". Both are things that are easy to set up in Nginx. And if we talk in container, the TLS termination/reverse proxy case is handled by an ingress service like Traefik, so it's basically just hosting a website.

Apache can be an option if you want/need to run stuff like php directly in the web server process (mod_php) but even that is nowadays provided by php-fpm as a separate service, hence it's once more just reverse-proxying time...
