Selfhosted
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.

I'm genuinely curious: do you re-watch enough YT videos that you need to archive your subscriptions? Or have I misunderstood the use of the plugin? I'm using SmartTube for TV YT content and it's fantastic.
Well, if I can get it working, I would much rather be watching via Jellyfin on my TV and not whatever crappy, privacy-invading, ad-shoving Youtube app I'm forced to use.
But realistically, I want to keep some how-to / maintenance videos archived, because I've lost track of how many times they went “private” and can't be accessed anymore. Some really niche product use/maintenance videos tend to disappear.
I have no real interest in data hoarding vlogs or other crap. Just informational stuff.
Thanks for the reply. I guess I haven't had that happen to me yet with videos I'm looking for again having gone private.
I'm also not interested in crappy, privacy-invading, ad-shoving YouTube apps, which is why I mentioned SmartTube. In case you haven't heard of it, it's FOSS and has AdBlock & SponsorBlock integrated. It's designed for TV use. If Tube Archivist fits your need though, that's great.
My wife is using Smarttube on a TV that has one of there Chromecast dongles, but our main LG TV doesn't have that option.
I've been using FreeTube through Windows on a MiniPC, but it's not an elegant solution. LOL It does work, though.
You may be able to root the LG TV and use https://github.com/webosbrew/youtube-webos, which supports ad blocking and sponsorblock. Or you could install it with developer mode, but developer mode has a limited session time.
