It’s definitely youtube she is missing. You can give her a curated feed with some self hosted options, like specific channels that get downloaded and updated regularly.

Could be a good idea tbh. Maybe a third party client. Problem is, some of them don’t work.
I know some Christian YouTube channels she might enjoy that are actually pretty orthodox and not off the walls

NewPipe? She can follow her favorite channels without getting the algoslop recommendations, it blocks ads, and you can even log in if she wants to comment on videos.

I’ll try it out on my own device. The dog (that she is incapable of taking care of) ate the charging cable so no more tablet for a while.
She does like watching actual stuff. But the slop distresses her.

It’s easy to download whole channels with yt-dlp. Then I would just make her some folders in vlc I guess if you don’t want to spend money. Although a server is 200$ and then you could put them on jellyfin but ya, I don’t know of any serverless options that have a youtube feel to them.
