I watch YouTube when I eat etc. I pretty much solely watch gameplays. Is there any alternative? Or an opensource way to view YouTube? I don’t want to use Twitch because Amazon and I grew out of enjoying streamers in my late teens and it’s been a while since.

Edit: I don’t ever use it on mobile. Desktop via Firefox only.

    Yt-dlp app can download playlists and whole channels also batch download supported, just set download to folder you need, from text file in which your channels/playlists listed, and add recurring cron job to repeat downloading new videos as they appear

      Hm, I’ll have to try again with that. I tried a couple, but I think that one would download one or two videos then quit.

      Appreciate the info!
