Happy to help, anything in particular you want doing?
Thank you for your offer, you can look into the opened issues.
However, due to various reasons and limitations I encountered, I decided to work on a complete replacement for ytsm that takes it to a new level, so I will do no further development on ytsm. The replacement project is called Regard and is written in Blazor and Asp.Net Core. I think it would be best to continue any further development there.
Wait so you don't have time to maintain a django project and therefore you rewrite it in microsoft stuff? You're decision, but I think that is a loss. I'd rather put my own youtube-dl script together then install a bunch of microsoft things on my server.
I'll probably never understand why the whole warez/media download scene is written is .net and the like..
Here's my solution btw:
#!/bin/sh
channels=("MxRPlays"
"ColdFusion"
"GardinerBryant"
"TheHoonigans")
IFS=""
for channel in ${channels[*]}; do
echo ">>> Downloading $channel"
mkdir -p $channel
cd $channel
yt-dlp --dateafter now-1day --sponsorblock-mark all --sponsorblock-remove sponsor https://www.youtube.com/c/${channel}
cd ..
done
Run it via cron/systemd-timer daily and you're done.
To make it clear why I decided to migrate:
Some of the features I want to add are:
This project is put together in a pretty hackish way, so adding these would mean major rewrites of large parts of the project. Together with the frontend stuff, I think the best course of action is to rewrite it, and do it properly. The only reason I chose .NET is because it has a very good infrastructure for what I want to build, and I can use C# for the frontend (I'm not a fan of React/Vue and other javascript frameworks).
Wait so you don't have time to maintain a django project and therefore you rewrite it in microsoft stuff?
What I meant is I don't have time to work on both at the same time... so I only chose one.
install a bunch of microsoft things on my server.
So you're fine with installing a bunch of Python things instead?
Here's my solution btw:
Then why are you complaining about this free software, and not doing that? After all, nothing is stopping you from releasing a competitor to ytsml/sonarr/radarr/etc
To make it clear why I decided to migrate
imho, all of these are good reasons to migrate. I've added the decoupling to my fork but it wasn't easy, and will likely rewrite it in C# as well.
Sorry, I might got a bit carried away there. Wasn't in the best mood. You're right. This is open source. Who am I to force any decisions on you. Do whatever you think is right and if people find it useful that's even better. If you like the MS ecosystem I won't and shouldn't stop you from using it. I just don't like it but that's all down to personal preference I guess. I hope your new project is a big success. The screenshots of the frontend look really cool.
With 2 small children, it's really hard for me to find time to work on other projects, and it appears I'm the only developer left. I would like not to let this project die, and I need your help!
