Google would really like it if everyone just paid for YouTube Premium instead.

Quick shout out to yt-dlp. It comes everything you need to download, transcode, and even use Sponsorblock!

Another quick shout out to Tube Archivist, it’s perfect for archiving YouTube videos

Made a script/cron job to auto dl new videos from my favorite channels with ytdlp and then they are hosted through jellyfin. Archived forever, ad free, accessible to me from anywhere.

I also recommend NewPipe for Android. It lets you download in multiple formats and shows comments in a mobile format (you can get it through the F-Droid store or from github.)

NewPipe

FreeTube for Windows. Finally stable, download options, subs, history, ex-/importable data, locally, no ads of course. It’s awesome!

Next to KDEconnect, I freaking love Freetube. Just a nice application

Btw FreeTube is not just available for Windows, it also works perfectly on Linux and macOS
