Sounds a lot like they're hoping it's a phase and will "work itself out".

My oldest is NB, they're 15. I like to think we're about as open-minded as it gets, but I still had the thought that it might be something brought about by seeing people they look up to being a certain way and not from internal, intrinsic reasons.

I hope your daughter's friend ends up ok. If nothing else then knowing there are people out there that think of him might help with feeling isolated and misunderstood.

Also, when you start hosting more than 2-3 services, keeping them up-to-date might become a hassle which you can forget. For docker-based hosting I'd recommend you setup watchtower, which can keep your servives up-to-date for you.

I would caution against automatic updates! Notifications, yes absolutely. But automatically updating things is a great way to have things break suddenly when you're not in a good place to troubleshoot.

This might be a little more than you're asking for, but I would recommend something like Node-RED with a feedparser. Reason being: it opens up a lot of options and could be a useful tool for things other than this one use case.

Silly, that's a down payment for the next house to turn into a rental.

Literally this. Maybe let me see a preview of notifications, but that's not a make-or-break issue for me.

This is brilliant! Makes things more secure, too, as nobody can answer them just because they know you!
