milky way processing in darktable, looking for feedback

Here’s my attempt. I also thought it was underexposed. I tried to bring out details in the foreground. There’s a little bit of red airglow below the Milky Way that given extra exposure jumps out. I applied the Orton Effect on the Milky Way using the soften module to brighten and make it more cloud-like.
