Have any of you programmed your car's homelink to a gate like in the video? My motor looks identical to the one in the video, I've tried parking my car as close as possible to the motor, but I can't get it to learn properly.

I dealt with something similar on a different brand's swing-out gate for a friend. We discovered that the previous owner had rigged a Liftmaster universal receiver to their gate motor, so we programmed HomeLink to the Liftmaster instead. Not sure what's involved with wiring, but maybe an avenue to pursue if you don't find direct alternatives.
If you choose to go with the universal receiver method (which seems to be common from some quick Google-Fu), you'll also need to program a remote to the receiver first before Homelink programming works.

You might have a rolling code, which means when you see the mirror blinking fast, you have to hit the learn button on your gate, then go back to your car and hold the programmed button for 2 seconds a few times.

Works awesome and other than occasional freeze up, which I completely solve it by powercycling it every few month or so when I remember it, it has been problem free.
Installation was relatively simple and even for someone like me who has no idea about how the system or wiring works, I had no problem with it. And just use my phone for opening the gate. I've even added into my Siri's voice command where it open/closes when I say "Hey Siri, do the gate". And also programmed it to auto-open and close at certain time of the date according to our schedule. I can also remote control it while being on the other side of the planet.
It works so well that I don't even know where my gate remote is at anymore.
Camera suggestions for beginner? Mainly looking for car/kid/nature pics, don't need anything fancy just tired of iphone pics when I want to take my time getting nice shots.

My goodness, you ask here, people are going to suggest $5k-10K 'beginner' camera kit.

i got a R50 and im going to probably keep it until the new R7 mkII comes around December. Love the performance on the little R50. Love the size too.
Negs
1) not weather sealed. if youre going to shoot in the rain or humdity, becareful
2) no IBIS (in-body stabilization) so if youre low light you need a fast lens or really steady hands
3) Ergonomics is bad if you have big hands. You'll be smashing all kinds of buttons unintentionally
The R7 will address all 3 of these things for me. Otherwise, it's a terrific shooter. Just look at my photography thread if you want sample photos.
OH and if you buy the R7 skip the kit lens. That 18-45 is kinda lame. Mines just sitting in a box not doing squat. AInt worth shit selling it either. Only good thing is that lens is image stablized so its OKAY for videos but not great.

Pretty interesting interaction with a client just now.
Mom and her kids came in and one of her girls brought her boyfriend with her (16 yrs old) and the mom was talking about how this new generation doesn't greet their elders at all.
So I asked what does the boyfriend say to you when he see's you? She said he just says, "Hi"
She's Chinese, boyfriend is Chinese, but apparently saying, "Hello Aunty" or "Hello Mrs. Wong" just isn't a thing for this generation.
The mom said it's a little weird, but she doesn't think it's a huge deal, but her husband hates it. I guess kids these days are brought up a different way.
I have two young boys and they have always been taught to say hello aunty or hello uncle. Kind of weird this generation doesn't do that.
I think that's kinda weird tbh, good on the GenZs for killing it. it's one thing calling your parent's friends auntie and uncle as a kid. But some teenage dirtbag saying "Hello Auntie, i'm going to go upstairs now and plow your daughter" doesn't sit right.
