Sometimes…
I love YouTube, but the site often annoys me in many ways. On my computer I use newsboat along with yt-dlp to download all the videos I want to watch offline. This way, I can watch content without dealing with any of the site’s frustrations…
Maybe if I had given it a real chance and started following a few more people, I might have had a much better experience. My feed was filled with random stuff that I was never going to have any interest in…

~/.newsboat/urlscontains URLs similar to the one below. Just replaceCHANNEL_IDwith the actual channel ID. You can find the channel ID in the URL of the channel’s page…With the URLs in place you can edit your newsboat config file to set up a key binding for downloading videos using
yt-dlp. It should be as simple as adding something like the following to the config…This binds the
dkey to useyt-dlpto download videos.
