Tube Archivist - Your self hosted YouTube media server

Tube Archivist: https://github.com/tubearchivist/tubearchivist

Here are some of the features in the self hosted Tube Archivist application:

• Subscribe to your favorite YouTube channels
• Download Videos
• Index and make videos searchable
• Play videos
• Keep track of viewed and unviewed videos

Once your YouTube video collection grows, it becomes hard to search and find a specific video. That's where Tube Archivist comes in:
By indexing your video collection with metadata from YouTube, you can organize, search and enjoy your archived YouTube videos without hassle offline through a convenient web interface.

Tube Archivist has also worked hard to keep the dislikes that Youtube has decided to remove from their platform.

Relies on ElasticSearch and Redis and FFmpeg + yt-dlp.

To package, should be similar to other Video apps we have, but way more usable.

Very nice, I have long wanted a youtube interface where I can click on things and it can just archive the videos. While I like youtube-dl, it's a bit cumbersome since it downloads to my browser instead of to the server where I can have things automatically backed up.

I think I'd have a use case for this.
