Of course. Youtube and the like "pre-transcode" it so that would be one way for Jellyfin to better solve it, at the cost of a significant amount of disk space.

Maybe Jellyfin, where I believe you can force a low bitrate for every remote client. It wouldn't be "adjust to internet speed" but you could minimise buffering that way.
Except for ipv6 (usually). Although most routers will block incoming traffic anyway by default.
having them VPN into shit is a hurdle that none of them are going to overcome.
If you have a lot of people connecting, then that's fair. But setting up a VPN for one or two households isn't hard. Even easier if you use Tailscale (apparently, never tried it myself).
Sites that have discussions almost always have useless search functions. Using site: on those would likely give you better results then searching globally (even if it takes multiple searches).
The problem is that you are still contributing to demand for meat. It would be impossible to meet all of the current demand by "ethical" means, so the only way for meat to become more ethical across the whole industry is for the demand for meat to go down massively (or the supply is reduced by legislation). And I don't see that legislation being likely if people are still so invested in eating meat.
I hope to see Jellyfin support this too (Plex is already getting support apparently) and hopefully it will work desktop-to-desktop and not just between streaming devices and phones.
Although it's probably not massively needed as Jellyfin can already control remote devices.
Beyond the other obvious choices of DarkReader, uBlock Origin, and Tree Style Tab:
-
Leechblock NG - limit time spent on addictive websites
-
Tab session manager - save tabs in a more flexible way than the default behaviour
-
Augmented Steam - Price history etc on Steam, including third party stores
Buy Zigbee in cases where there isn't a Matter alternative. It's not quite as interoperable as Matter but it's fully offline once setup (and some newer coordinators have dual zigbee/Matter support). Avoid cloud connected WiFi devices like the plague.
There's a decent amount of WiFi 6 routers/APs supported by OpenWrt, but not really 6e: https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_available_16128_ax-wifi
I have the Flint 2. I'm only using it as a dumb AP and managed switch but the wireless performance has been a significant step up over previous APs and routers I've owned, even if it doesn't support 6E. And it comes with a couple of 2.5GbE ports so you can integrate it with a 2.5GbE LAN and use with a 2.5GbE+ internet connection (not that it's very common yet).
To OP: the firmware is in its early days (both stock and snapshot openwrt) so you may run into problems with some use cases.
I suspect the delay would still be longer than a Youtube like implementation which may need to switch transcodes multiple times, but that's probably unrealistic at this point anyway.
Transcoding everything to AV1 could be a solution too, since high resolutions can look quite good at low bitrates, so you could limit it to 5mbps or 10mbps for any resolution and be done with it. But I'm not sure Jellyfin supports that, and at least from the UI it doesn't give you particularly fine grained control over resolution/bitrates. Perhaps having a secondary library of just AV1 transcodes that you handle manually (perhaps even using a software encoder) could be an option for some.
The client side is also an issue, with not that many devices supporting hardware decoding (although I've found it's fast enough in software with most modern smartphones at least).
