You're definitely a real operator.  The primary difficulty in being an
operator is exposing yourself to the inevitable abuse complaints and
secondarily paying for the required compute and network resources.

Thankfully I've been able to hide behind my employer's good name for
both those things, so perhaps you are more real than I am on that
count even though I've been running exits for >10 years (maybe even 15
now?).

So thanks and welcome!
