It would've been nice to see what the apps looks like when they're blocked.

And startup time. JIT languages are a bad match for command line applications, for example.
.NET can do ahead-of-time compilation now, there are a few gotcha's but it's usable.

I evaluated this for a small business but came to the conclusion that self hosting this security critical software would cost more in work hours for initial setup and maintenance than just paying the cloud fees for a few years.
Genuine question, in what scenario is the self hosting setup and maintenance worth it?
There really isn't any maintenance besides the occasional update. Setup was also effortless as I've got Caddy setup to reverse proxy containers in my network. I simply define what the subdomain should be for the container and where it can reach it and that's all there is to it.
I've got Vaultwarden setup on one of my servers via Docker and I've got nightly backups of my vault to Dropbox via docker-volume-backup[0], which works wonderfully.
I personally choose to self-host because I already have the infrastructure for it, so might as well put it to good use.

That gets you L3 keys, which only provide sub-hd resolutions.
There are devices out there with vulnerable TEEs (trusted execution environments), where DRM operations commonly happen. You can then extract L1 keys from those environments - for example with the Nexus 6[0] NVIDIA Shield[1].
