I don't personally like proxies, intermediaries, but that said they've been entirely normalised by kubernetes/traefik/haproxy type setups. I do find managing the bridge pseudo-devices, and the various bindings, and DHCP/SLAAC a bit painful because I actually don't understand it well.

I use bastille, and it seems to "just work" and I looked at Sylve and it had huge potential. When I ask for some ELI5 on bridge/net stuff, I don't get traction so my confusion remains.

I think a lot of people enable NAT methods which aren't that far removed from a host proxy or port-map. I don't like NAT (see comment above about k8s)
