I need something and hopefully i dont have to invent the wheel.
I want to subscribe to youtube channels and have new videos automatically detected and downloaded to local storage. Bonus points for jellyfin intergration but i can live without.
I know not too hard to rig something like this uo with youtube-dl but if there is an existing solution that would be amazing.
Any way to get YouTube’s recommendations as well, and not just subscriptions? I mainly watch stuff from my recommendations, which are usually exactly what I want to see. Been honing my alg for decades. 😅
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.
Rules:
Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
No spam posting.
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
No trolling.

Definitly look at pinchflat. Does exactly this. :) Easy to set up, and it runs so smoothly !
I moved from TubeArchivist to Pinchflat. Very good.
Why the switch?
It’s much more lightweight, handles Plex integration much better and automatically cuts out ads, promotions, etc.

Not with this setup, no. I specifically didn’t want The Algorithm™ involved.
Alright, cool. Thanks for replying!
