Especially once youtube switched to not serving the formats they used to and using newfangled codecs not supported by my old computers. youtube-dl is my only way to view youtube videos on most of my computers. Luckily it's easier to get ffmpeg builds that support transcoding from new codecs than it is to get youtube videos to play.
