 I spent week trying to figure it out as this is not documented on
 wiki:Apache2.4.x
 Example file https-userdir.conf will not work because for God only knows
 reason Apple disabled access to user home directory for other directories.
 Therefore to make things work you should do in terminal

 {{{
 chmod +a "_www allow execute" ~
 }}}

 I don't know what this command is equivalent for - probably it is
 shorthand for adding user home directory to the group _www and then adding
 +x (for user? group? others?) just for this user, instead of doing chmod
 o+x ~ which would be risky.

 Anyway this should be documented somewhere on each system >=Monterey.
 Apple is really annoying I wish I could go back to Mojave.
