Why Malta?

Any benefits to being incorporated/hosted there?

Pros/Cons?

Are you planning on including resource intensive media/other apps like Plex, Emby, Jellyfin, Sonarr, Radarr etc as well?

Also, I HIGHLY doubt you're "surprised" to see this posted here and elsewhere (like on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/ulm395/pikapods...) as this all appears engineered / deliberate with your involvement - I mean, your response is literally identical - which is fine and all, but transparency is likely a better approach.

Good hustle though.
