I built a little Python app that’s just a big Download button on top of yt-dlp. Copy the link, hit the button, it downloads the video to my Jellyfin folder so I can watch YouTube videos on Apple TV without having to tolerate ads every three minutes.
Guess we’ll need to make a series of discord servers with channels to hold YouTube content for people who live in shithole countries where people are guilty until proven innocent.
Grayjay and Newpipe (and its forks) can do that, as well as just watching it like regular youtube, but also the option to select from other platforms - like peertube, as one example - to watch.
I use FreeTube, but this doesn’t seem like a “youtube piracy” solution because it is streaming the content directly from youtube, which can ultimately prevent access; I already am blocked from watching certain videos that require you to be logged in to watch.
The problem is basically, if there is a specific youtube video you want to watch, but youtube insists that you must provide ID to see it, right now I don’t think there’s actually a lot of recourse for that because there are too many such videos for anyone else to actually host them or offer torrents or anything.
How do you even do that?

I guess yt-dlp everything lol
I’m assuming that mandatory ID checks would make yt-dlp not work
Unless you have access to an age-verified account(that is not yours), in that case you can just pass the cookies
Need a yt-dlp that uploads to another service that isn’t stupid lol
Hunter2, that’s your time to shine!
They are going to start permanently banning people from YouTube by ID if that becomes popular enough
Sucks to live in a Draconian country lol.

I meant that google will be banning people
Variously better and worse than a ban from both Uber and Lyft.
