    yt-dlp

    it or a front-end to it is always #2 on the list of applications to install on my own new os installs–right behind firefox.

    i don’t use yt much, but it’s sure nice to have. i can just drag over or copy/paste urls or video id right from a serp and never have to give google a even single page view.

    most the commercial ‘free with ads’ stuff (like the library of ‘hollywood’ movies and tv they have) that is wrapped in drm is on or rotates to other free sites (where adblockers or pihole work).
