For Japanese train enthusiasts I recommend this Youtube channel with over 1000 cabin-view train ride videos from Japan: https://www.youtube.com/@HKASAMA

I made a little python script/alfred workflow that plays an arbitrary 7 minute segment from an arbitrary clip from that channel. So I have a keyboard shortcut to drop me into a random train ride whenever I want to chill out (without risk of getting sucked into the social media wormhole)

Would you mind sharing your script? I'm quite interested to be honest, I've stopped YouTube completely some weeks ago but this kind of interaction is what was good about it retrospectively :)

Interested too.

same here, I was thinking of doing just that as a screen-saver!

My initial idea before reading your comment (probably hard too implement) - take around the "most replayed segment" if there is one.

Would love to have the script to play around!
