    Actually, YouTube is cracking down on adblockers.

    So while you might not feel the pain now, you will eventually.

      Laughs in

      Txt file with favorite channels as input for a yt-dlp download script schedule. Combined with a selfhosted invidious and freetube desktop app for other then favorite videos.

      Honestly I am really tired of jumping trough hoops, have to make sure yt-dlp and invidious use a proxy (cloudflare warp) or google will ban your ip for being a bot.

      But having to deal with the actual YouTube site or reopening my google account is worse. Its not even (but still also) the ads at this point but pure resentment against big tech.

          First I hear of if but a quick scroll shows it mostly to organize an existing collection so you would still need to download.

          I put them straight into jellyfin which works fine for me.

      The day I have to watch ads is the same day I stop youtube. So far ad blocks seem to work well for now and I’m more than willing to spend hours getting them working if needed.
