    Thanks! You should get a broker set up first and play around on localhost: this makes it easier to get acquainted with what you can and can't do. Experiment with the QOS and 'retain' settings to make sure you don't lose messages. I did a writeup at https://petergarner.net/notes.php?thisnote=20190811-Lightweight+Monitoring+System+Using+MQTT.html which should give you some ideas. As regards clients I'd recommend the cross-platform MQTT Explorer https://mqtt-explorer.com/ and for iOS, I've settled on EasyMQTT which also provides some graphing options. I don't use Android but most of the clients are good (and free). Hope this helps!

    I use a Firefox extension to do it - https://einaregilsson.com/redirector/. You might be able to do some local DNS with a wildcard shenanigans, but this is much easier to set up. I actually don't redirect my Reddit requests, since once in a blue moon I will want to comment on something, which libreddit doesn't support. However Invidious does have the option to let you follow certain channels, and since I don't comment on YouTube videos, it covers all of my use cases, so I redirect all Youtube traffic to it.

    Asking for advice:(to HN of all places but eh...) I know nothing about docker. I have a handful of VMs. Want to be able to set up useful self-hosted services at home without killing my family downtime. My current plan: yunohost https://yunohost.org/ and a RPi4 to see the possibilities. Then if I see a rock solid requirement maybe go for something more specific. (NixOS config seems interesting...) Seem fair?
