Was considering deploying https://github.com/navilg/media-stack to my self hoated server (an old desktop plugged into my router). Im in an australia if thats relevent, thinking of getting starlink soon.

What are the risks of running it raw vs over a vpn?

      They were bought by Kape Technologies in 2019. This drove away a lot of folks because of prior security concerns with another product of theirs. I don’t recall the specifics, but here’s a reddit thread from the time with comments that likely shed some light on the worries from then if you’re curious.

      As a practical response, I’ve been with them since years prior to that and didn’t change because I renew 3 years at a time and had 2 years left when they were bought. Figured I’d give them that time to see how things changed. Best I could tell, they didn’t in any way that pisses off my ISP, so I still haven’t bothered switching.
