Not really, they’d clash all the time. 8080 is the default port for a non-privileged webserver, that is, web server, something you put your own stuff on, not applications/daemons that happen to have a web interface. E.g. ComfyUI uses 8188 for its web interface, deluge 8112, neither will serve your index.html.
Anything can use it, but I think by convention it’s used for http on a non-privileged port.
It’s the default port most applications use when they run an integrated web server.
