That's super interesting! And I guess I can kind of see that point about masculinity, it's an awful thing overall the way we treat the notion of "manliness". Good on you, and thanks for the insight!
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.
I would enjoy training a LLM on my aggregated command history and using that for auto completion, or maybe using an open source one trained on a larger set from the community, but I am very uncomfortable sending data about every command (as I'm writing it!) to any company.
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.

I last used it seriously like 7 or 8 years ago and it was fine. I put it on par with GitHub at the time. The ability to self host for free without too much trouble also really affected my position on it.
I haven't really enjoyed the few times I've had to use it in the last couple of years, though.
You can't believe anything Rollins says, though. He's a liar.
