Isn't it insecure to run such an old version tho? (Since it stopped recieving updates years ago)

Well, security doesn't matter for a media device like that. The exposure is so minimal that it might as well not exist.

Hell, considering I really only use it to pirate shit maybe once a month nowadays, my main desktop PC isn't even on enough to matter; I could keep any old OS on it.

If it is connected to your router it’s a point of ingress.

The risk of getting a attack via the router is very low these days
