I’m referring to projects like redlib or invidious.
I was thinking about doing something similar for a local second-hand marketplace and got curious. Redlib seems to use token spoofing to get past rate limits and Invidious doesn’t even use the official YouTube API.
The only way I thought of, which would be slow, is to scrape the site (like you would with Beautiful Soup).
I’ve always been searching for the time to learn python, but between uni and work i wake up at 5 and go back home at 10; + they where not going to pay me for this fix
Tldr; couldn’t be fucked to study a whole other language in my nonexistent free time for a fix that they wouldn’t pay me for anyways
