Yeah, but why mess with port numbers when you can just run it as a standalone process?
Because you might want to share it with other people or even your own other devices on the same network
One nice part is that you can use the same setup for everything and you don't have to play the sysadmin role all the time for every app.
It's a bit puzzling to me, how many YouTube mirroring tools are available out there. If you're using something like that, what's your reason to download/archive the videos instead of just streaming them from YouTube? I get that sometimes it's great to archive a video in the case it get's deleted from YouTube, but in my case this very rarely happens. I watch the video and I'm done with it. If I can't re-watch it, this…
Block YouTube on kid's home network, but give them assess to your locally curated DadTube.
What I’d really like is a YouTube TiVo. There are about 100 channels that I watch religiously, but, release infrequently. I never want to miss a video from these channels. I also don’t want to open YouTube and sift through hundreds of releases from channels that release four times/day just to find the 1-2 videos that I actually want to watch (and will inevitably miss.) Just give me a priority feed of the stuff I actu…

So, you have hundreds of subs but only care about a hundred of them, and that's YouTube's fault? Why do you subscribe to channels whose content you don't watch?
I don't have this particular problem, but maybe they want YT to support these creators, even if they don't have time to watch it all.
or maybe those creators brings more money to YT...

Lets! Not let's! Lets is a form of word let , let's is a contraction of let us . Those are completely different words and are not inrerchangeable https://youryoure.com/?apostrophe

I use Invidious for this purpose. Has a priority feed only on subscriptions which is great. I would say it’s not great for discoverability, but if that’s not a use case I’d look at it.

NewPipe works great for this usecase. Just get rid of the "Default Kiosk" column as content of main page, leave the "What's New" and watch only videos from channels that you subscribe to (on NewPipe, it's not integrated in any way with a Google Account).

I just unsubscribe from the spam channel because they're producing too much noise. I don't need content producers like that in my life, and making it less obvious that they're adding mostly noise is just disguising the problem, not solving it.
Good for you, but that’s not a solution if you have mixed interests, e.g. you want to get daily entertainment content to choose from and content that is deeper than that. You may not need it, but if you can’t do that anyway it’s indistinguishable from coping.

Or have a family member (Or trusted person) with enough knowledge to keep you trucking on when things go south, seems to work with both cars and tech
Except this breeds a learned helplessness, and makes every layman beholden to some wizard who knows the Old Wisdom, the right incantations to make the devices we rely on every day even function. It must feel awful to have to go through life at the mercy of tech crap that just doesn't work half the time, and little to no ability to reasonably deal with it. Besides, so many problems now aren't even fixable by end users…
As the family wizard, I expect people to know their passwords, keep track of their mails / services and such (And will refuse to save them / store them, within reason) But even with tech literate people, sometimes they prefer to defer some stuff to me since they trust I'll know what to do I do the same with stuff they are competent in, we are (mostly) better for it

This feels like it's covered by YouTube subscriptions, no? Subscribe to those 100 channels, bookmark your subscriptions page, and presto! You now have a priority feed of the stuff you want to watch and nothing else. Maybe you just don't want to create an account, which is fine (NewPipe is a great fit), but it's a bit weird to see you say that "making sure we don’t miss the things we love isn’t YouTube’s M.O." when th…
