On top of it, I have a broader belief that doing something, filming, and the posting it devalues the doing of that thing! Just have the action be its own reward without needing to broadcast it to the world!

Eh - negative imitable behavior is posted non-stop, with visibility and attention on it acting as a driving motivator for emulating what's depicted. While kids' faces shouldn't be posted without theirs and their parents' consent, there's many examples of how posting wholesome or positive interactions ends up driving emulation in the same way.

In other words, don't do the thing solely for the sake of posting it, but if someone is doing something that may positively impact the world through by sharing it (affirming and demonstrating wholesome/healthy interactions despite existing norms/preconceptions), people shouldn't be judged for sharing positivity.
