Hello guys, I have noticed that all the big internet services are starting to get worse and worse. And I am forced to migrate to foss alternatives. I have moved from Windows to OpenSUSE, from Reddit to Lemmy, etc. But I have an issue with moving from youtube. It is not that my favourite channels are not bringing me alternative they do but it is somewhat fragmented. Some of them are on PeerTube, some on Floatplane, and some on Nebula and I would rather pay those than youtube. My issue is that each of these has its app and I would like to have them united in one app to which I link all my accounts to. Does something like this exist?
Can you eli5 yt-dlp? I’ve seen it around but I’m not sure how to use it. Sounds like something worth putting on kodi?
it’s a library / command line software to download youtube videos.
There’s more information here
Basically install the tool, and run
yt-dlp [put your youtube links here without the bracket]to download the video. I haven’t directly used the official command line for years though, so you might want to read the documentations.And that’s because, I wrote my own terminal-ui using their python API, for personal usage and requirements (you need to know at least some python or knowledge using the terminal to use it)
