It is usually easier to rent a vps with a domain to run as a reverse proxy or a tunneling server between your server and users. Dynamic DNS and static IPs depend on the internet provider offering real outbound access and not a NAT. Plus any internet facing service should be hardened for security in some way, which it is usually provided in service packages for the vps.



Magnitude matters in a system designed to reward rich people. You can’t afford rent, so you will have to settle for sleeping in your car. Altman can’t afford a $100MM house, so he will have to settle for sleeping in a $20MM house.
Poverty in the end is about lack of access to better conditions of living. Some people are running away from war zones with nothing but the clothes they have on. They are broke, but they’re not “can’t live in the metropolitan area of NY and has to settle for the suburbs” kind of broke.
