I'm testing different Python versions to see what the minimum is for yt-dlp-adv is. I know 3.10 is when they added match-case, so 3.9 isn't supported. Will update README with minimum working version after I'm done testing.

What version of Python were you using?

 

I made this Python menu-driven CLI script for yt-dlp. It guides you through a series of menus to download content from a YouTube URL.

If anyone is interested, feedback would be greatly appreciated as only I have tested this so far, and I want to make sure it works for other people's systems.

If you encounter any issues or bugs, let me know so I can fix them!

Edit: I should mention: This is not a pipx package. That was never the intention developing this initially. I might make it a package in the future, but for now, it is just a project directory.

I'm not creative, so I made these templates for everyone.

If I made this a PyPi package, would I be able to create a config file to read from it/have it read from a default config file and set that as the user config file?

Updated the post to include more info, but it is a CLI app which helps simplify yt-dlp commands. It doesn't mess with any system files.

It creates a venv in the script directory and installs the dependencies that way.

So, I'm making an install.sh script to download script files from GitHub to the user's system. I know downloading to the home directory (~/script_dir/) is typically frowned upon.

For context, this is a directory containing python files, README, requirements, etc. pip dependencies need to be installed before launch. The script would be executed through main.py.

Where would be a good place to download to that won't clutter the user's home directory?

Edit: The script is a CLI interface for yt-dlp to make it easier to use. So, it will download files to specified directories on the user's system.

Edit 2: Appreciate the responses. I forgot to mention this script has a config file it uses for certain parameters, such as default download directory for each category. If a config file doesn't exist it creates one in the script's directory and dumps the default values from a default config file (YAML).

Some of you are mentioning this could be a PyPI package. Would I still be able to read/write my config files if I made this a PyPI package?

 

I've seen a lot of people praising RSS feeds over standard news. What benefits does RSS have over normal news sites? Are they more privacy-focused?

What feeds would you recommend for a fellow Lemmy user?

I don't think a person having something to lose makes them stronger. I would imagine it's the opposite: having nothing to lose makes a person stronger since there's nothing holding them back.

Burnout 3, Midnight Club 3, and NFS Underground 2 were the best games to play on PS2. Such nostalgia.

 

Been trying to find a good tablet for productivity and recreation. Something that can be used for programming (Not web), and something that can play DRM content.

Ideally, something under $1000.

I've already looked at the Librem 11 and am considering it, but I want to know other (ideally, cheaper) options available.

I have it installed but disabled. Will auto updates still occur?

 

I'm running a version of Android called OxygenOS, and there was a GPS update available in the Aurora Store. However, when I attempted to install it, a message appeared:

"This app normally receives updates from Google Play Store. By updating from a different source, you may receive future updates from any source on your phone. App functionality may change."

I'm concerned that updating the GPS through Aurora might cause issues with some of my other applications, particularly those I've paid for. Is it safe to go ahead with the update?

SearXNG is fairly decent if you can set that up.

 

Preferably, apps that can be installed from F-Droid. APK recommendations are acceptable too.

 

I always have music in my head and I was wondering if other people have something similar.
