I don’t see any specific sites just for this purpose but I did a quick search on the top public sites and there seems to be quite a bit of Hindi and Bollywood content available.
I’d suggest scrolling back through the sites in the megathread and searching for “Hindi”, “Bollywood”, or any specific titles they’re looking for.
Worth it in what way? Are you already self hosting and looking to just offload some of your critical services to a VPS for its availability, or are you fairly new to all of this?
For your first question on the VPS, I’d suggest thinking about backups (Is it provided by your VPS? Do you need something like Backblaze B2?) and firewalls.
For your Cosmos question:
I’m curious to know if this means Cosmos will only manage DNS for services hosted on the same box.
No, not necessarily. The DNS zone you control lives on Cosmos, but the records themselves just point to IP addresses. You can point an A record to any reachable IP, whether it’s the same VPS or a completely different server. As long as the tunnel is alive, the backend can be anywhere.
It’s possible, but I can’t find any existing solutions that solve this need.
The best possible data for this will come from the big search engine’s APIs (e.g., Google, Bing) due their global reach and massive data storage capabilities.
If you truly want to self-host something, I’d suggest looking into setting up a simple pipeline from one of those (or multiple) APIs to a self-hosted data store (e.g., Elastic, Postgres) and write up some simple scripts that will let you search at-will like you would with Google Trends.
Just wanted to say thanks for coming back to your own post and writing up the solution :) Love seeing these when I search for a problem I’m having.
Minecraft server + mods + introducing scripting his own mods/customizations? Suggested simply because gaming is a great way to introduce computing concepts that kids can visually see the output from.
Otherwise, I’d suggest showing him how to create his own web pages, creating visual programming games, etc. Find his favorite hobbies (music, art, animals) and start creating something around that hobby so that the computing piece is just as interesting.
What are you trying to accomplish? Do you really need a DDNS provider?
Personally, I’ve found that using a simple script on my server to update my DNS provider (e.g., Cloudflare, Njalla) is more than enough.

Since this post is gaining some steam, I’ll drop a few links here for anyone who isn’t familiar with the Flock controversies.
Flock cameras show signals of being used for widespread surveillance by private organizations with really no accountability or restrictions on how/who they’re surveilling. Because of that, various legal challenges, civil rights objections, and other pushback is occurring around the US to fight back against the privacy violations and attempting to establish accountability for those operating these systems.
