Was it cost effective? Meh.

Was it a learning experience?

More importantly, did you have some fun? Just a little? (=

Also no. The guy's a youtuber

On the other hand, will this make him 100+k views? Yes. It's bait - the perfect combo to attract both the AI crowd and the 'homelab' enthusiasts (of which the bulk are yet to find any use for their raspberry devices)...

He is not a YouTuber. And even if he was - what's the problem ?

Jeff has many useful OSS software used by many companies around the world daily - including mine. What have you created ?

Nothing that is not AGPL-licensed, so you and your company haven't taken advantage of it.

I am not sure how this relates to my comment though.
