Yuuup. I haven’t used youtube-dl since I was a teacher and needed it to bring educational videos into the classroom that lacked Internet.

But now I have a copy of the source, and have been thinking about how I might contribute and/or repackage it as a “browser” (with the option to run it in “headless mode”, of course).

It also brought tons of attention to youtube-dl itself, which is still widely available and will remain so for basically ever

(apologies for rewording the Striesand Effect but it is very real).
