Can you explain why you expected this from the title? When I hear „network routing“, the first thing that comes into my mind is IP routing, not a reverse proxy. With a „homelab“, I‘d never associate the need for a reverse proxy or SSL certificates.

The "homelab" modifier does a lot of work. When I read homelab I was expecting "easy way for non tech person to do computer magic."

When I read about a "gun fight" I am expecting to read about violence and carnage. If you put the word "water" in front of it I am no longer expecting violence and carnage in a wet environment. Homelab changes the definition of everything that comes after it much like water changes the definition of gun fight.

Isn't that hypocritical? The very nature of a home lab means whoever owns it is a tech person. A "non tech person" wouldn't even know what a home lab is, at least in the context of computers and technology.

I do not think it is hypocritical. I did not behave in a manner that contradicts something I have said or believe.

I expected that because I didn't just read "network routing", I read "homelab network routing", I don't 100% agree with the title but nowadays a homelab means docker containers and a reverse proxy to expose them all. Also Zoraxy sounds a lot like "proxy", so there's that.

you're thinking "computer networking", they mean "webapp experimentation"

[superb_dev]

Maybe they should use words that mean “webapp experimentation” instead of “computer networking”

[sambazi]

imho it's a legitimate use of the term. though the tension of meaning suggests that there is room for clarification
