For a old laptop with Intel atom processor and I think 2gb ram.

    Downloading videos via yt-dlp and playing via MPV will not take all the RAM. And Firefox with uBlock Origin can be set to hard mode to block scripts, or even nightmare mode for a barebones no JS experience.

      Depends on how big the video is and how large you have your mpv buffer set to ;)

        A buffer of upto 1 minute will always work fine. MPV defaults are fine. Browser will always be worse, no matter what. (Playing to the bait…)
