๐Ÿ“บ yt-mpv

Watch a YouTube video without ads, while archiving to archive.org.

uvx yt-mpv install

Follow instructions to configure internet archive credentials, then drag the links to your bookmarks bar. You can watch without archiving (takes a couple of seconds to open), or click the watch+archive link to upload after watching. After closing MPV, itโ€™ll download it again in highest quality in the background, and upload it to archive.org with $(whoami)-urlhash as the item name.

You will, of course, need to install mpv in order to use it, and have an archive.org account to configure the internetarchive uploader. Youโ€™ll get XDG desktop notifications

why?

This is what you get when you put 4 minutes of adverts after every 6 minutes of content; someone spends a couple of hours fixing the problem.
