I spent a decent amount of time making a nice web application to wrap up the functionalities of yt-dlp, makes it really easy to follow content through Jellyfin!

Have a look if you have the chance, I think people could make good use of it: https://github.com/MattMckenzy/ToothPick

It's not just a YouTube downloader, it also allows you to download videos from, as the official website says, "a few more sites". Those include social media sites such as twitch or twitter but also the online platforms of TV networks. If you live in the US, you can for example download full episodes from the big broadcasting networks (ABC, NBC, CBS) and PBS. If you're British you can download stuff from the BBC. Germans find their public broadcasters supported as well. Likewise for a bunch of other European countries and Australia.

And with a good VPN you have access to all of the above.

This is the great missing answer. As geeks we get so caught up in the how, we forget the what. Thank you for explaining so clearly.
