My bad, what I meant is that you don’t actually download the video as a file, but you stream it through FreeTube. It’s still running locally on your machine, though it's just more private and doesn't have all that slimy shit from YouTube.

Just use https://github.com/Siriusmart/youtube-tui

>>106954443
I've never seen that before. Is it any better than YT-DLP or FreeTube?

"The YouTube TUI does not work on its own, it is instead like a TUI frontend for programs like mpv or yt-dlp/youtube-dl."
TL/DR: no, it's bloat.

https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/issues/14404

you need to install some "deno" thing so that yt dlp even works normally for youtube
I tried dl some hdr vid, before deno install it had some errors, dl'd a 100mb 8bit version and warned about "sabr streaming"
after deno install it gave no warnings and dl'd a 400mb 10bit version of the video.

>jewtube gets more cucked each day so we move on from home cooked js bloat to a standalone 3rd party js engine

>>106958820
i think yt-dlp is working right now but it has this tedious workaround that you have to do.
