NPM - What services need what toggled? - eviltoast

Hiya, just got NPM installed and working, very happy to finally have SSL certs on all of my serivces and proper URLs to navigate to them, what a breeze! However, as I am still in the learning process: I am curious to know when to enable these three toggles and for what services. I assume the “Block Common Exploits”, can always be turned on. But unsure about the two others. Some applications have not worked until I turned on the Websockets Support, but I dont really know what it does, nor do I know what applications need this in order to fully work. Are there any thumb rules for these things?

Appriciate any pointers! 🌻

    Probably not best practice, but I automatically check Block Common Exploits and Web Sockets every time because I’m lazy. Works every time.

    Not sure what Cache Asset does, but I can guess from the name. I leave this one off because my NPM runs on a VM with not much storage
