Download your favourite YouTube videos

The author advocates downloading and archiving YouTube videos using tools like yt-dlp before they disappear from the platform, arguing that content you love doesn't truly belong to you unless you secure personal copies. While basic setup requires only the yt-dlp tool and storage space, the author describes their complex personal system using ytdl-sub and Jellyfin to organize hundreds of downloaded videos across multiple playlists for playback on their TV.
