How much bandwidth and flexibility do you want? OpenWRT is what I use on consumer hardware but many people here also swear by custom hardware with opnsense
...which is completely unnecessary and overkill for most people, even those with home labs, since OpenWrt can do it all.
Homelab is a hobby, and like other hobbies, people actually loves doing the "unnecessary and overkill" stuff.
I thought "unnecessary and overkill" is our actual name, and selfhosting is just a nickname
Think about it... with OpenWrt you can spend even more time tweaking around and doing things that may be more automation under OPNsense. :P But yes, fair point.
I won't disagree but not everyone is the same
