    As for why so many people use these two I think it also has to do with "adoption" in another way. Back before nginx Apache was the standard everything else was "different". Then nginx appeared to solve the Problems of Apache and then there were 2 ... These days you can probably do anything you want/need with the 2 servers so no reason to use anything else.
