Reverse proxy is like a shield + traffic manager for your servers.
It takes incoming requests, decides where they go, and can even optimize them (like compressing images or handling HTTPS).
Regular proxy is about *your* privacy. Reverse proxy is about *your servers’* efficiency and safety.
For a quick start, Cloudflare’s free tier does a lot of this for you.
