5 year olds are pretty cringe

Their aggressive, misleading and clickbait ads, particularly as YouTube sponsorships. From my experience the product is fine, but the ads make it seem like their covering up for something.

Podcasts are just a RSS feed with an mp3 downloas link. It's trivial to open the RSS feed in your browser and locate the mp3 download link. Download the mp3, open it in any audio editor, edit out the ad. Or find the folder where your podcast app stores the mp3s and edit them from there.

Personally, I'm OK with podcast ads as there's limited opportunity for tracking or personalization. If we don't encorage podcasts to remain as an open platform, they will be swallowed up by Spotify.

Yes, exactly, you get it! I don't like paying for things, you don't like paying for things. Paying for things sucks. We need post scarcity communism.

There's a nice explanation of how caddy reverse proxies work here. https://caddy.community/t/using-caddy-as-a-reverse-proxy-in-a-home-network/9427

Essentially you setup your router to port forward any new incoming connections to Caddy, which then decides what to do with them according to the configuration (Caddyfile).

Even simpler: Your local network is like a castle, inside is a safe and secure place where your devices communicate freely. Your router is a firewall around the castle, by default it blocks incoming connections. This is good because the internet is scary. By port forwarding you allow a door in the firewall which leads to Caddy, which is like a guard. Caddy asks them what they want, and if they say e.g. jellyfin.example.com, then it sets up an encrypted connection with https to your local jellyfin server. If they want anything else they aren't allowed in.

I guess so. Your question was

Would anyone be interested in something like that?

Which most of us have answered with a clear "no". So I guess we're done here.

If you're confused about a specific term, ask about that specific term, and you'll get many people eager to help. Sorry nobody wants to get on an open ended video call with a stranger to teach you how to run a server, but that's just how these forums work. Everyone's setup is different so there's not much I could do to help in your video call.

Learning this stuff is hard, don't let anyone tell you any different. We all went through the same struggles, perhaps for some people that was so long ago that they forgot how hard it was.

Paracetamol is not considered an anti-inflammatory.

You shouldn't have to lane shift in roundabouts. On a well designed multi lane roundabout you choose your lane before you get there and simply follow it to the exit. The only reason to change lanes is if you screwed up.

Why would there be load on the clutch if the handbrake is on?

True, but low rez web jpegs is a huge part of the market for images. AI will replace stock photos and that's incredibly disruptive on it's own.

The store has a profit margin, so the store values the item significantly less than the sticker price.
