https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl and https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp (which this project uses, see https://github.com/tubearchivist/tubearchivist/blob/f848e732... ) are great at ripping videos, and not just from YouTube, they support 100+ different media providers.

They are actively updated every time a new blocking technique comes along.

OK but this is self-hosted

Those tools work on a laptop - I use them all the time.
