Does anyone know if it's possible to tee the data into multiple feeds? I'd like to feed to fr24 just for purposes of getting the better account, but also to this because the info is better. I could run two dongles i guess.

Yes, you can feed several places. My raspbian is feeding adsbexchange as well as flightaware, fr24, radarbox, planefinder and open sky network.
Sweet. I just googled everything at the end there and found this, look reasonable?: http://gordon.celesta.me/2018/04/13/raspberry-pi-real-time-f...
Skimming those instructions, they don't look bad. The github repo linked above is James' from adsbexchange, so between the two you should be set.
There's a nice script that will set up a bunch of feeders and run a web interface:

No. Do not use this buggy mess. Please!
It sounds like you know a lot about this topic, but can you please share what you know in a more informative way? Shallow dismissals and name-calling are against the site guidelines. We're trying for a different sort of discussion in which people can really learn from each other, instead of putting others or their work down.

If you wouldn't mind taking a look at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and posting in that spirit, we'd appreciate it. I'm sure HN readers have a lot to learn from you.

Just look at the code there. The author goes MIA and bugs are not fixed. There's really no reason to use it at this point - as there are better alternative and modern setups.
