Sorry to hear Tom isn’t making videos anymore. Anyone know about an archive of his videos available for downloading for later viewing and archiving?

    I’ve already used YT-DLP to archive his channel.

    I believe it’s 737 videos

      Thanks, but I was looking to see if anyone put in work already to download them and put them in a torrent or other archive outside of YouTube.

    YouTube DLP would work, it’s a command line tool, although I’m sure Gui versions exist.

    You could download his videos using that, the command are a little confusing but just read the help text for each command and you’ll get the hang of it in no time

    There are dozens of applications that you can point at a youtube channel and it will download it all.

        I’ve used jdownloader for YouTube vids years ago. Not sure if it’s any good still. Also I did it once Video at a time.

        NewPipe is a great youtube viewer for Android, it can also download. FOSS

        4K video downloader you only need to pay to use youtube premium or auto download new videos. Free version works on win, mac, and linux.

        StreamFab is very expensive, only works on Windows but allows you to auto download from most streaming sites: youtube, of, ticktok, instagram, facebook, netflix, disney plus, espn, crunchyroll, etc etc
