The day I can no longer download videos from YouTube will be the day I take a step back from it altogether....
Seeing posts like this inspires me to consider getting an older device and diving into projects like this myself. It’s amazing to think about all the possibilities and what could be created!! Thanks for sharing this post ~° ....
Forgot to mention that mpv
is how I actually watch the videos. Newsboat downloads a list from each channel kinda like an RSS feed. I can then select any video & download it by pressing a keybinding. It's been a while since I last had to actually set this up, but off memory, here's some quick info....
The file ~/.newsboat/urls
contains URLs similar to the one below. Just replace CHANNEL_ID
with the actual channel ID. You can find the channel ID in the URL of the channel's page..
https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=CHANNEL_ID
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..
macro d set browser "yt-dlp %u"; open-in-browser ; set browser "xdg-open %u"
This binds the d
key to use yt-dlp
to download videos.
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....
I hadn’t logged into my Twitter account in over a year. When I finally did recently, I simply shared a link to my Mastodon account. A few days later, I went to check a Twitter link, only to find my account had been banned....
While I'd personally never install or use this, it good to know its there for the extremely small percentage of people who'll want or need it....
This design sucks so much that I switched to fennec over on f-droid....
Isn't possible to view private instagram accounts, you'll need to add them as a friend to view their content. 100% of blog post's & website's you'll find on this topic, are SCAMS....
Sorry, but I have no information on the original source of the image....
Personally, I consider a "bloated system" to be one that has a bunch of installed apps that I'll never use....
N I N T E N D O C A N E A T S H I T ! !
For the most part I use ncmpcpp
with mpd
, but sometimes whenever I just want to listen to a single file I use mpv --no-video
instead....
A reboot should likely fix this....
Not upgrading your system for like 6 months is a really bad practice that should not be recommended ever. If you don't want to upgrade your system all that often, then why not install something like Debian instead of a rolling distro?
Upgrading between Ubuntu lts releases never fully worked for me either. Something always broke or went wrong....
I CANNOT unsee this now 😶🌫️
Not sure whether it's creepy or funny 🤔
Loving that nvim config.. Using a similar one myself....
