You’ve got the gist! Proxies and reverse proxies are all about *direction* and *purpose*.
Proxy = outbound (you -> web)
Reverse proxy = inbound (web -> server)
For examples, a corporate proxy might block social media, while a reverse proxy might protect a banking site from DDoS attacks.
Try WireGuard for a modern proxy-like VPN setup.
