I use youtube-dl regularly, through mpv. What I'd really like, is a minimal youtube search, in-terminal or a minimal gui. Then I wouldn't need a browser to use youtube at all; I dislike having to rev up a 1000mb browser just to find a video and copy its address.
Actually, now that I think about it, I can't remember if I've tried a text browser, might be bearable, though images of videos are sometimes helpful.

- severine 7y ago> What I'd really like, is a minimal youtube search, in-terminal or a minimal gui It exists! It's called SMTube but don't let the name confuse you, as it works with a lot of media players, including mpv: https://www.smtube.org/en/index https://www.smtube.org/en/index
