Does OpenLiteSpeed support Apache .htaccess rewrites?

I have been getting some conflicting information - official OpenLiteSpeed pages say both that:

1. OpenLiteSpeed supports Apache rewrites, and
2. OpenLiteSpeed does not support .htaccess

A bit confused...what are LiteSpeed Tech trying to pull here?

Actually, both statements are true and not contradictory.

.htaccess files are not supported, but you can copy the rewrite rules from the .htaccess and paste into OpenLiteSpeed admin console:
