Fascinating! How’s it compare to youtube-tui? I’m really interested in starting to use a program like this… the YouTube website is so unbearably slow.

As a matter of fact it is one of the scripts that I cannot do without, I use it everyday, it is very convenient. But then again I wrote it myself, so I can't be objective.

This seems awesome! But it doesn't seem compatible with Windows (I gonna switch to Linux but need to finish some projects first). Is there any others that are? yt-dlp compatibility shouldn't be a problem if it relies on that since that does have a Windows version.
