It looks like you have 5 ground wires plus 4 pigtails for the switches which is 9 wires under one wire nut. That's too much, even though you're using 14AWG and a blue wire nut. You could use a greenie and only need the 5 ground wires, leaving one long one to jump from one switch to the next continuously and save space. Edit: I tried putting 9 #14 wires in a blue wire nut and it worked out well as long as you pre twist well like you did. I was concerned about some wires slipping back. I also tried 7 #12 wires and it seems fine with that too. Always learning, thanks for the video.
