I have several services running on docker, some are `traefik.enable=true` and run fine.

I experimented on some proxification to Tailscale (I know that [Traefik has this in the pipeline](https://github.com/traefik/traefik/pull/11733) as well) and Gitea was my guinea pig. After some tests (with labels) I wanted to get gitea working as before.

And bummer, it does not get regiosted with Traefik anymore.

The docker compose file is fairly standard:

```auto
services:
  gitea:
    image: gitea/gitea:latest
    labels:
      - traefik.enable=true
      - traefik.http.routers.gitea.rule=Host(`gitea.XXX.YYY`)
      - traefik.http.services.gitea.loadbalancer.server.port=3000
    restart: unless-stopped
(...)

```

and other services use a similar docker compose file and start OK (this is to highlight that I use Docker and not Docker Swarm).  
The service (Gitea) starts OK too, I see the labels when inspecting the running container.

In the Traefik logs I see

```auto
traefik-1 | 2025-07-04T16:23:38+02:00 DBG github.com/traefik/traefik/v3/pkg/provider/docker/config.go:185 > Filtering disabled container container=gitea-devops-a7000c49cf9cbf76845fb120b5fd0209918ba19912b8fe71bc2947558aded7be providerName=docker

```

It looks like Traefik **deliberately** excluded Gitea (like it does for services that are not proxified).

Since this used to work without any problems I spend a fairly extensive time looking at the configuration for typos (though I do not know where that may come from as that part was never changed) and here I am: stuck.

Any ideas?

Do you use a docker socket proxy?
