    I use archivebox, it’s a more general purpose website archiver but it runs yt-dlp against sites to grab videos.

    I haven’t gotten around to spinning it up yet, but I was just looking into this myself and was going to try out Pinchflat. If anyone has used it and has any feedback I’d love to hear it.

    I was between it and Tube Archivist.

    It’s simple, no UX bloat, can export audio, video and I don’t have to mess with yt-dlp which is huge and the documentation is like reading a whole book xD.

    Though barebone yt-dlp allows way more :)

        Yeaaah ! It has some degree of customization via docker environment. Dunno how far you can go though, I only have a sleep interval option.

        But the barebone default configuration works out of the box :D!

    I have a flask app with a bunch of home utilities I’ve written and one of them is a wrapper around yt-dlp that takes a URL and saves it to a Plex library location.

    Then there’s a bookmarklet I use from desktop Firefox when I’m on a youtube (or other) video page that sends the current URL to that endpoint.

    Also I can “share” any video URL on my phone to this web service, and I use that all the time from Newpipe when I want to watch something on my TV instead of on the phone.
